Arena Breakout: Infinite just entered early access but is expected to launch as a full game later this year. It’s breaking heavily into the extraction shooter market, which is admittedly becoming quite a densely populated landscape, but it’s coming with quite a bit of innovation.

Insider Gaming has learned that the team at MoreFun Studios is working on an innovative AI solution known as ‘FACUL’, which stands for First Ever AI Companion Who Understands Human Language.

Next-Level Intelligence​

MoreFun Studios is working to constantly pump Arena Breakout: Infinite, a new free-to-play extraction shooter, with content. On the roadmap is the integration of a next-generation artificial intelligence engine called FACUL, which will allow players to make use of AI-powered companions that they can order around the battlefield.

But it’s far from the command model that existed 20 years ago in the likes of SOCOM.

FACUL allows AI characters to recognise up to 17,000 in-game items, such as buildings, weapons, landmarks, and as the team said, ‘even blades of grass’. Players can use an adaptive, dynamic model to issue commands to these AI companions, ordering them as though they were talking to teammates. They can even have casual conversations and crack jokes with the AI.

EXCLUSIVE: Arena Breakout: Infinite to Feature 'First-Ever' AI That Can Understand You Speaking

Arena Breakout: Infinite is getting an AI integration in the future that'll allow users to control their AI companions as though they were real people.

Human AI creators hit a wall years ago, time for machines to pick up the slack.
