Since this is somewhat of a subjective question, the resolution will be based on the opinion of a willing / unbiased full-time game developer. if there is a lot of disagreement, may be majority vote of multiple game developers
The specific question asked to the game developer in question will be as follows:
Will it be the case that:
The first successful video game that uses video generation is released in 2026, and before August 2026
By the end of August 2026, Game Design consists majoritarily in prompting and interacting with World Model AIs.
It will be interpreted by the game developer in whatever way they find most reasonable for the purpose of this market.
This question is managed and resolved by Manifold.
