What the developer says
Some content in SHARDS is created with the help of generative AI. AI image-generation tools are used to produce the game's key art, store capsule images, and marketing visuals, as well as textures for some in-game 3D models. Translations of store and in-game text into languages other than Japanese are also produced with AI assistance. All AI-generated content is reviewed, edited, and approved by the developer before use, and SHARDS does not generate any content live during gameplay. Music and sound effects are not AI-generated.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: parts · effort risk: mediumReasoningThe disclosure lists AI for marketing art, some in-game textures, and translations, while music and sound effects are stated as not AI-generated. That is limited supporting content, not the bulk of the game. The developer has only two releases in the last 12 months, so volume signals don't reach high risk. Against: No reviews yet and a very recent release, so effort signals are thin; the developer states all AI content is reviewed and edited, and no content is generated live. |
