Meta launches ai-powered game development tools for its horizon platform

Meta has introduced two new development tools designed to enable users to create games using AI prompts on its Horizon social platform. The tools, named Horizon Create and Horizon Studio, will be available in early access, with users able to sign up for a waitlist. Horizon Create is a mobile app, while Horizon Studio is a browser-based application offering more detailed control options. The company aims to boost the visibility of games developed with these tools by integrating them into Facebook and Instagram, where they will also be playable. Despite past struggles with the Horizon platform, Meta is focusing on expanding the reach of its new games through these social media channels. The initiative marks a significant step in Meta's strategy to leverage AI in gaming and social interaction. The tools are part of a broader effort to enhance user engagement and content creation on its platforms. The Verge reported on the development, highlighting Meta's commitment to innovation in the gaming industry.
