"Everything in the final version will definitely 100% be human made" - But Owlcat says gen-AI is being used during The Expanse: Osiris Reborn development
Owlcat Games has confirmed the use of generative AI during the development of The Expanse: Osiris Reborn, primarily for prototyping and technical iteration, with all final assets being human-made. The studio previously clarified its AI usage in a job posting, assuring that artists would not be replaced and that AI would only serve as a tool for inspiration and speeding up internal processes. The game is set to release in spring 2027 for PC, PlayStation, and Xbox Series S/X, with a closed beta available next month for pre-purchasers.
