What the sources say
Content made before release
Embark Studios disclosed on the game's Steam store that during development they used AI-based tools and gave the example that voiceover audio is created using text-to-speech tools to generate the audio of in‑game commentators Scotty & June. [1]
Generated while playing
Embark staff described using text-to-speech generative tools to produce dynamic commentary and in‑game character reactions - i.e., AI-generated voice lines that respond during matches rather than solely fixed prerecorded lines. [2]
Development workflow
Embark confirmed the game uses a mix of human-recorded voicework and AI text-to-speech conversion (developers used generative TTS as a development/tooling technique to expand dialog), a point reiterated by news reporting and studio statements defending the practice. [3][4]
