Any concerns of Black Myth: Zhong Kui using AI have been assuaged, at least for now. The Black Myth: Wukong sequel is moving steadily along, and one of the leads says the team's approaching it somewhat like how filmmaker Christopher Nolan goes about making his movies.
Over on Weibo, Yang Qi, the art director on the Black Myth games and co-founder of studio Game Science, responded to a fan's question over whether AI will be used to speed up development.
"We'll steer clear of [AI generated content] during the design and asset phases," he says, as translated by a user on Reset Era. "Not out of resistance, but simply to stand our ground until the very end."
