Square Enix’s Forward-Thinking Approach: AI, Blockchain, and the Future of Gaming

Blending Cutting-Edge Technology with Creative Gaming Experiences in 2024 and Beyond.

Square Enix, the publisher behind the acclaimed Final Fantasy series, is gearing up for an eventful 2024, with a focus on integrating advanced technologies like AI and blockchain into their game development and publishing processes.

Takashi Kiryu, the company’s representative director and president, outlined these plans in a New Year’s letter, reflecting on a tumultuous 2023 characterized by mass layoffs, geopolitical risks, sharp inflation, and the ongoing challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic.

Kiryu highlighted the rapid adoption of emerging technologies in 2023, such as VR/AR and generative AI machine learning tools, which have begun to reshape the gaming industry.

He pointed out the increased attention these technologies received, not only in gaming but also in other sectors like architecture, where XR technologies and commercial drones are revolutionizing traditional practices.

In gaming, these technologies are expected to enhance the experiential value of digital content, leading to new forms of content that merge the real and virtual worlds. This aligns with the broader trend of metaverse development, where digital experiences are becoming increasingly immersive and interactive.

Embracing AI in Game Development

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth

Kiryu emphasized Square Enix’s commitment to aggressively applying AI and other cutting-edge technologies in content development and publishing. The short-term goal is to improve development productivity and refine marketing strategies. In the long term, the company aims to leverage these technologies to create innovative forms of content, viewing technological innovation as a significant business opportunity.

This approach mirrors moves by other major players in the industry, like Microsoft, who have been exploring AI for game quest and dialogue writing, and NPC behavior. The integration of generative AI tools in game development raises questions about its impact on team sizes and the nature of creative processes.

The three main focus areas for Square Enix’s investment in 2023 were AI, blockchain entertainment/Web 3.0, and cloud technologies. Kiryu mentioned the company’s efforts to redefine their mission and goals in these areas, working on modifying organizational structures and optimizing resource allocation to support these initiatives.

The application of blockchain in gaming continues to be met with skepticism, particularly regarding its contribution beyond digital ownership and transaction mechanics. Nonetheless, Square Enix is exploring various ways to incorporate this technology into its gaming experiences.

Navigating Economic Challenges and Expanding Digital Presence

Final Fantasy XVI

In response to the economic challenges of the previous year, Square Enix is looking to diversify its revenue sources and adapt flexibly to the changing business environment. This includes a thorough review of their development pipeline, potential optimizations in resource allocation, and possible cancellations of underperforming projects.

The company also aims to enhance its digital sales and distribution, working towards a more collaborative approach between regional teams. This strategy is designed to maximize sales of new titles, expand the fan base through a rich back catalog, and strike a balance between product-oriented and market-oriented approaches.
