Game Developers Favor Disclosing GenAI Use

GamesIndustry.Biz surveyed 826 video game industry workers during its AI Week and found 88.4% support storefront disclosures when GenAI tools were used in game development. Valve implemented a 2024 Steam policy requiring such disclosures, but 48.7% of respondents oppose Valve's approach while most developers said they'd disclose use, often favoring checklist-style specifics. The results contrast with Epic CEO Tim Sweeney's opposition.
