Vienna-based 3D generative AI platform, Atlas, has secured $6 million in funding to improve AI models for the gaming industry. The platform aims to speed up the creation of virtual worlds and experiences for game developers and brands building video games and extended reality (XR) environments. The funding came from two rounds led by 6th Man Ventures and Collab+Currency, with participation from investors such as Square Enix, Nvidia, and Gaingels. Atlas plans to launch an alpha version of the platform later this year to enable smaller, medium, and indie game developers to use its technology and build their own worlds. The CEO, James, emphasized the importance of principles such as privacy, human agency, oversight, and inclusion in the gaming industry. He expressed optimism that Atlas would develop to include a wider range of AI-powered tools to simplify complex tasks like 3D modeling and coding.
