Studio Atelico launches Atelico AI Engine into Early Access

The studio's technology, first used in its debut game Bobium Brawlers, is designed to run on-device instead of relying on data centres. The Atelico AI Engine works with Unity, Unreal Engine, and Godot, enabling developers to generate images, run language models, implement speech systems, and create AI-driven character behaviors. The engine allows AI to run alongside gameplay without impacting rendering performance and removes cloud dependencies across Windows, macOS, iOS, and Linux, on both GPU and CPU. "Until now, developers have had to choose between intelligent gameplay, performance and creative control," said Studio Atelico CEO Piero Molino.
