Sony Interactive Entertainment has filed a new patent that could make waiting in games less boring. The idea is to show picture-in-picture content on the screen during loading times, matchmaking, or other delays. Instead of only showing a loading screen, players could watch useful content while they wait. This may include gameplay tips, story recaps, livestreams, tutorials, mini-games, or community videos. >Players could see extra content while games load or search for matches. >Content may include tips, videos, tutorials, and live streams. >The feature could help new players learn the game faster. >Some gamers are worried it could later be used for ads.

Unity has released a new AI tool called Unity AI to help game developers create games much faster. The tool works directly inside the Unity game engine as a smart assistant that understands your entire project and supports many parts of development. Developers can use it to generate game assets such as sprites, textures, animations, and sounds. It can also write code, fix errors, automate boring tasks, and turn simple ideas into playable game elements very quickly. Unity says this tool makes creating games easier and lowers the barrier for new developers while being especially useful for prototyping new ideas and speeding up production.
