Game studio 11 bit Studios faces criticism after players discovered artificial intelligence content in their new release The Alters. The company admitted to using generative AI technology during development after trying to hide this information from customers. Players found poor translations and AI-generated text that should not have appeared in the finished product. The game received strong reviews from critics but sparked controversy when users spotted the unauthorized AI elements. Steam requires developers to tell customers about any AI-generated content in final products.

The studio explained that AI text appeared due to an internal mistake during production. A designer used AI-generated content as temporary placeholder material for background graphics. This placeholder text accidentally remained in the released version of the game. The company conducted a review and confirmed this was the only such error. They plan to remove this content through an update.

11 bit Studios also used AI for translating movie content that characters can watch within the game. The team added these films at the last minute and faced tight deadlines for translation work. They chose AI translation instead of using their regular translation partners to meet the launch schedule. The studio acknowledged this decision was wrong and should have involved professional translators from the start. They are currently working with trusted translation agencies to fix these AI-generated translations.
