How Developers Are Using AI in Game Development
PocketGamer.biz surveys how game developers currently leverage AI across production, data analysis, and user acquisition, ahead of the AI Gamechangers Summit at Pocket Gamer Connects Nordics. Executives from MTG, NC/Veroplay, Fingersoft, Dodreams, Julicia Studio, and Mattel163 share concrete use cases: AI enables three games to be built instead of one (MTG), cuts creative costs by 20-30% (Veroplay), and improves data analysis and actionable insights (Dodreams). Mattel163 uses AI for pLTV modeling and ROAS prediction to optimize UA spend. Studios report cost reductions, faster workflows, and enhanced testing, while noting incremental gains in art and Unity development. Hypergryph's Arknights: Endfield uses almost no AI, starting before the hype. The article positions AI as a practical tool improving efficiency and creativity, not a replacement for talent.
MTG Aims to Double Size Through Selective M&A and AI
Swedish digital entertainment firm Modern Times Group (MTG) aims to double its size within three to five years, primarily through selective M&A and organic growth, while scaling AI tooling. CEO Maria Redin emphasized a 'village philosophy' where studios maintain autonomy but share technology and learnings. MTG recently rebranded its midcore division to PlayAmp, which includes Plarium, InnoGames, Snowprint, Hutch, Ninja Kiwi, and Futureplay. Shared services include Plarium's data platform, the GoGame marketing platform, a D2C platform (accounting for 51% of division revenue in Q2 2026), and an AI Lab. AI is being used to accelerate game development, allowing teams to produce more content and test more ideas. Redin stressed that AI is about improving quality and output, not reducing workforce. The company is also exploring M&A opportunities in markets like Türkiye, China, and Vietnam, while remaining Western-focused.
