Company Of Heroes Dev Wants To Release Games Faster But Isn’t Going All In On AI
Company of Heroes developer Relic Entertainment is keen to make and release games faster, CEO Justin Dowdeswell said in a new interview, but the company isn’t banking on AI to get there.
In an interview with GI.biz, Dowdeswell said one of the company’s Achilles heels is that it has taken too long to release new games. “There’s long stretches of time between game releases, and you lose touch with the players, people lose touch with what you’re up to–and they generally cost a lot more, the longer they take,” he said.
Part of what Relic will look to do in the future is “get to market more frequently,” and that doesn’t mean the company wants to lower the quality bar and simply ship things faster for the sake of it.
