Riven remake won't feature any AI-assisted content, Cyan confirms

Cyan Worlds is set to release an Unreal Engine 5 remake of its classic PC adventure game, "Riven: The Sequel to Myst," later this year. The remake will feature free movement throughout its 3D environments and additional puzzle and narrative content, but will not include any AI-assisted content. This decision comes after Cyan faced backlash for using AI-assisted content in its crowdfunded game "Firmament," where it was implied that elements like voice acting and written journal entries were AI-generated.

A PR representative for Cyan confirmed to Digital Trends that the "Riven" remake will not feature any AI-assisted content. The developers will base the content on the original game, avoiding the controversy that surrounded "Firmament." "Riven" is expected to be released for PC, VR, and other unspecified platforms sometime in 2024.
