Pearl Abyss expands AI use in development, including DokeV concepts
Pearl Abyss detailed the expanded role of AI in its development pipeline in its Q3 2026 earnings materials, published on November 12, 2026.
Pearl Abyss said it is expanding its use of AI across game development processes, including validating design concepts for DokeV with AI before implementation, according to its Q3 2026 earnings materials published on November 12, 2026 and reported by gamespark.jp.
The company cited automation of repetitive work, support for content creation and more efficient testing as the main uses of AI in its pipeline. For DokeV, Pearl Abyss said design concepts are now validated with AI rather than being implemented and tested manually.
Pearl Abyss stated that AI's role in DokeV is limited to concept validation and development efficiency, with the development team leading core gameplay and actual content production.

In August, Pearl Abyss published its Q2 2026 earnings report, which already positioned AI as a tool to improve development efficiency and quality.
The company has said DokeV development progress will be shown within 2026, with a release targeted for late 2028 and full-scale promotion, including playable demos, being prepared to start around late 2027.
