“I implores you”.

Following Red Dead Redemption‘s release for the Switch in 2023, a new ESRB rating indicates that the game may soon be receiving a native Switch 2 port.

GenAI seems to be on the tip of everyone’s tongue at the moment, and a recent flashpoint involves Embark’s ARC Raiders, which uses an AI-based text-to-speech system to generate spoken dialogue trained on the voices of human actors.

Embark caught some flak for this approach (which was also used in the company’s other major release, The Finals), to the extent that our friends over at Eurogamer took a stand and marked the game down for its use of GenAI.
