Certain assets of Foamstars will be AI-generated, Square Enix confirms

Foamstars.

PlayStation exclusive shooter Foamstars will feature AI-generated artwork, Square Enix has confirmed, with Foamstars producer Kosuke Okatani clarifying to VGC that "in terms of the content of the game, this makes up about 0.01% or even less." 

The assets in question are supposedly in-game album covers for the soundtrack, so a significant portion of the game has still been created by hand as confirmed in a statement from Square Enix provided to VGC, claiming that: “AI was used in the creation of the in-game album covers for the music featured in the Foamstars’ soundtrack. As developers, we’re always looking at new technologies to see how they can assist with game development.
