"We re-recorded some of the lines post-launch and made them with real voices. There is a quality difference. A real professional actor is better than AI; that's just how it is."
"Embark faced flak in the weeks following the launch of Arc Raiders for the use of AI-generated voice lines in the game. According to the studio, some voice lines in Arc Raiders utilised licensed human voices generated via text-to-speech tools."
"The executive said Embark used AI as a production tool to test things internally and didn't 'necessarily believe in replacing humans with AI all the time.'"
Arc Raiders faced criticism at launch for using AI-generated voice lines, primarily in the in-game ping system. Embark Studios CEO Patrick Söderlund confirmed the studio re-recorded some AI voices with human performers after launch, reducing the number of AI voice lines in the game. Söderlund acknowledged the quality difference between AI and professional human actors, stating that real performers deliver superior results. The studio used AI as an internal production tool for testing rather than as a permanent replacement for human talent. Arc Raiders has achieved significant commercial success with over 12 million copies sold since its October launch, with Embark continuing to provide regular post-launch updates and content roadmaps.
