Capcom to Transform RE Engine Into an 'AI-Generation Game Engine' With REX Project

At Capcom Open Conference RE: 2026, Capcom outlined the REX project, a multi-step upgrade turning RE Engine into an "AI-generation game engine." The goal is to create games together with AI, though Capcom says it won't use AI-generated assets in its titles.

• REX project targets efficiency, performance, tools and QA in RE Engine
• Engine unified under the 'world's most common programming language' for humans and AI
• Capcom will not implement AI-generated assets in its games
• Some REX improvements will be open-sourced for AI training
