In brief
- Atlas has launched AI agents that build 3D and other assets for game studios.
- The platform has moved from closed beta to global availability on Google Cloud Marketplace.
- CEO Ben James said AI should automate technical tasks rather than replace artists.
Vienna-based startup Atlas announced on Monday the launch of a new AI tool to automate the game development process, as game developers increasingly turn to the technology.
The new Atlas AI Studio uses multiple AI agents to automate tasks such as generation, texturing, optimization, and engine integration, allowing artists to describe tasks in natural language. At the same time, the system builds the assets using different AI models.
“What we’ve built now, and what we are releasing, is an agentic kind of workflow builder,” Atlas founder and CEO Ben James told Decrypt. “What it does is you’re able to describe what you’re looking to build. It will go ahead and assemble a combination of different AI models to make that.”
Atlas AI Studio is now moving from closed beta to global availability through Google Cloud Marketplace. Studios including Square Enix, PARALLEL, and Ego have used the system during the beta, Atlas said.
