Summary
Epic Games has postponed its upcoming Walt Disney collaboration after targeting a March release, with no new launch date communicated, according to people familiar with the project.
Developers were also told to use more artificial intelligence tools to help finish the game, signaling a push to speed production amid the delay.
The move ties a high-profile Disney partnership to Epic’s broader use of AI in game development, even as the project misses its original release window.
Behind the billion-dollar Disney partnership, is Epic's sudden mandate for 'no hand-written code' a visionary leap or a dangerous gamble?
Can artificial intelligence truly replace human developers in creating a massive Marvel universe, or is this just a frantic fix for project mismanagement?
