Epic delays Star Wars Marvel shooter

Epic Games reportedly delays its secret Star Wars and Marvel crossover shooter to adopt AI-first development methods.

“No more hand-written code”

AI-first development model

Epic developers are encouraged to use AI tools like Anthropic's Claude with human oversight for all project work.

Project timeline shift

The shooter was originally slated for March release but now faces an unknown launch date due to AI development adjustments.

Developer reaction

Many Epic developers expressed being 'stunned' by the AI-first approach to game development.

Tim Sweeney's statement

Studio CEO Tim Sweeney said Epic is 'moving developers around to retool for maximum AI acceleration'.

“Our more modest aim is to survive the AI revolution”

Disney stake

Disney owns a $1.5 billion stake in Epic Games, but has refuted acquisition claims for the shooter project.
