Artificial Agency's behavior engine uses foundation models to turn game systems into autonomous agents at runtime — characters that remember player interactions and personalize encounters, plus 'game director' systems that adapt story and pacing. Studios integrate it into any genre without game-specific training, keeping their existing tools and workflows. The engine launched in alpha to select studios via a pilot program.

Pros & cons

  • Generative NPCs that remember and personalize
  • Runtime 'game director' adapts story & pacing
  • Engine-agnostic; keep your existing tools
  • No game-specific model training required
  • Team & backers from DeepMind and AAA studios
  • Alpha — limited to select studios via pilot
  • No public pricing or self-serve access
  • Runtime LLM behavior raises latency/cost questions
  • Unproven in shipped commercial titles

    Inworld AI

    Inworld AI

    Realtime voice AI infrastructure for consumer-facing apps.

    Inworld AI builds the infrastructure for production voice AI: a single Realtime API that unifies speech-to-text, an LLM router, and high-quality text-to-speech so developers can ship interactive voice agents, AI companions, and conversational apps at scale. Its Agent Runtime is free, with usage-based billing for model consumption. Inworld powers voice for a range of fast-growing consumer AI apps.

    Worth knowing

    Launched in 2021 as a game-NPC 'Character Engine,' it pivoted in 2024 to general realtime voice AI infrastructure.

    Convai

    Convai Technologies, Inc.

    Conversational AI characters and NPCs for games and virtual worlds.

    Convai is a developer platform for building lifelike, voice-driven non-player characters and virtual humans. Its SDKs for Unity, Unreal Engine, PlayCanvas, and the web add end-to-end speech, LLM reasoning, long-term memory, perception, and action execution so characters can hold natural conversations, understand their surroundings, and perform in-world tasks. Studios use it to ship interactive NPCs across games, XR, and the open web.

    Worth knowing

    Its conversational-NPC tech was showcased in NVIDIA's ACE technology demos for AI-driven game characters.
