Deepforge is a machine-learning model trained to help fit World of Warcraft armor from the original design to characters of different races (such as Gnomes or Night Elves) and genders. Zhen Zhai, a senior manager in data science at Blizzard Entertainment, spoke about how this tool helps devs bring greater variety to players, who can express themselves better with whatever armor they choose. With Deepforge, Blizzards artists can spend more time crafting the fine details of armor fitting, making it look just right for different sized character models.

Principal sound designer Daniele Galante of Ninja Theory discusses binaural recording at GDC, a practice that replicates how people perceive sound in a three-dimensional space by using a microphone shaped like a human head. This technique creates a realistic, immersive audio experience. Voices appear from different directions and distances, mimicking how Senua perceives auditory hallucinations.
