KRAFTON (CEO CH Kim)'s creative studio ReLU Games (CEO MJ Kim) recently released promotional videos of two new works "MIMESIS" and "Scavenger T.O.M" to be launched this year.
The new works released this time are the horror cooperation game "MIMESIS" and the survival and manufacturing game "Scavenger T.O.M". Both works integrate AI technology into their respective worldviews and game experiences, striving to bring players a new experience of gameplay.
In the context of the story of "MIMESIS", a rain of unknown origin mutates some humans into monsters that can copy other people's voices, behaviors and memories - "MIMESIS".Players need to form a cooperative team of up to 4 people to collect resources to ensure the operation of the tram and work together to escape from dangerous areas.MIMESIS creates extremely natural AI behavior and voice based on reinforcement learning and small language models (SLM).Players must constantly question and alert AI enemies disguised as teammates, and will experience in-depth psychological warfare in the process.
"Scavenger T.O.M" is a survival and manufacturing game that tells the story of humans hiding into a bunker to avoid radiation after a nuclear explosion.In order to survive in a bunker with resources on the verge of exhaustion, players need to remotely manipulate the home robot "T.O.M" to explore the polluted earthly world.Players can use the resources collected by T.O.M to create various items needed for survival.The exploration environment on the ground will be generated using the latest AI image generation technology and brings immersion to players through a new exploration experience.
The two new works this time use AI technology jointly developed by KRAFTON's deep learning department and ReLU Games.It is worth mentioning that the AI applications in the game draw on the development experience of KRAFTON's deep learning department and have been rated as a model example of KRAFTON's studios strengthening their AI competitiveness.
While releasing this batch of trailers, ReLU Games will also conduct a Steam Wishlist event (the event deadline is on the 28th of this month).Players can log in to another event page to verify and participate in the event after adding 2 new works to their wishlist on Steam.Winners selected through lottery will receive a Steam game redemption code for a random game in ReLU Games’ past works, including "MIMESIS".
ReLU Games regards "the integration of deep learning and gaming" as its core vision, and is bringing new works to players at a rate of more than 2 models per year, and has attracted everyone's attention.ReLU Games has launched games such as "Magical Mic Duel: Senpai, Hear My Spell" and "Uncover the Smoking Gun", which have verified the possibility of game development based on AI technology.The two new works will be released in the third quarter of this year through the global game distribution platform Steam.
ReLU Games CEO MJ Kim said: "The two new works are our challenging attempts. We hope to introduce AI technology into the popular game category to create a new user experience." He said, "In the future, we will continue to show everyone the unique direction of ReLU Games through novel and interesting games."
