- The generative AI model has a “detailed understanding of the 3D game world” which could help game developers
- The muse could also preserve classic games for future generation
Microsoft has unveiled its new generative AI project called Muse which, according to him, will be used to help studios create a gameplay and preserve conventional titles.
In partnership with Ninja Theory of Xbox Game Studios and Microsoft Research, Muse was trained on the game of the development of the developer, Bleeding edge, And would have a “detailed understanding of the world of 3D game” which is aware of the physics of the game and the actions of the controller of the players.
“This allows the model to create a coherent and diversified gameplay rendered by the AI, demonstrating a major step towards generative AI models which can empower game creators,” said Microsoft in his announcement article.
The company already uses Muse to develop a playable AI model in real time which is formed on other games of the first part and has provided images showing the capabilities of the model in the blog post.
To watch
Microsoft also thinks that it can one day benefit players and developers and even preserve conventional games.
“Today, countless classic games related to aging equipment are no longer playable by most people,” he said. “Thanks to this breakthrough, we explore Muse’s potential to take older catalog games from our studios and optimize them for any device.
“We think that could radically change the way we preserve and experience classic games in the future and make them accessible to more players.”
Xbox boss, Phil Spencer, has developed what it means in the attached announcement video, saying that Muse has the potential to “discover older games” from older equipment.
“… I think of an opportunity to make models learn older games, games that were perhaps linked to unique equipment where this engine on this equipment …”, said Spencer . “Time will erode the amount of equipment that can really play a game.
Spencer also suggested that AI could make the games older “portable” on any platform where these models could work “.
“… we talked about preserving the game as an activity for us, and these models and their ability to learn completely how a game is played, without the need for the original engine running on the original equipment, I think that You open a ton of opportunity. “
It is still early, according to Microsoft, but more information on Muse is expected at the Game Developers Conference (GDC) 2025.
