  "summary": "Capcom is planning to integrate AI technology into its game development workflows. According to programmer Satoshi Ishida, the studio faces challenges in producing large-scale games, such as Resident Evil, which can make simple tasks extremely time-consuming. Ishida presented at the Capcom Open Conference RE: 2026, outlining the company's plans to evolve its RE Engine into an AI-generation game engine.\n\nThe RE Engine will be improved through a multi-step project called 'REX', which aims to solve several issues, including the massive size of modern games, the need for an engine that's easy for everyone to use, and the integration of AI technology into development workflows. According to IGN, Ishida mentioned that successfully integrating AI technology has become an essential condition for streamlining future development.\n\nCapcom's goal is to create a future where it can develop games in collaboration with AI. The company plans to incrementally improve and transform its RE Engine to achieve this goal. While details are limited, it is clear that Capcom sees AI as a key part of its game development process moving forward.",
