One of the great things about Layer is the fact that we’re model-agnostic, meaning we support many AI models with more coming in all the time. With AI evolving on almost a weekly basis, there’s no need to get locked into any one model - simply use the best model for your usecase.
This approach ensures that game studios can access the best-in-class tools without being locked into a single provider. Below, we break down the different AI models Layer supports across three categories: 2D, 3D, and Video.
2D Image Generation Models
For creating high-quality 2D game assets like characters, concept art, backgrounds, and more. These can be trained in your own custom style and generated in large batches.
FLUX: Layer’s most popular AI model for stylized and high-quality 2D asset generation.
FLUX.1 Fast
FLUX.1 Dev
Supports custom styles
Stable Diffusion: An open-source model ideal for flexible and customizable image generation. The majority of base Layer styles run on Stability AI.
Stable Diffusion 3
Stable Diffusion XL
Supports custom styles.
BRIA: Designed for professional-grade visual content with ethical copyright compliant sourcing. Available for Enterprise users.
Supports custom styles.
Google Imagen: A high-fidelity image generation model from Google’s AI research.
DALL·E 3: OpenAI’s latest model for detailed and context-aware image generation.
3D Asset Generation Models
For detailed 3D assets you can bring into major game engines like Unity or Unreal.
Tripo AI: Specialized in fast 3D shape and object generation for gaming applications.
Trellis 3D: Microsoft-designed model optimized for procedural 3D content creation.
Rodin: Meta’s AI model focused on generating high-quality 3D assets from both text and image prompts.
Video Generation Models
For creating video assets like trailers, game items, UA/marketing ads, or animated backgrounds - Layer has wide range of video models available.
Minimax: Video model optimized for smooth AI-generated motion.
Minimax Live: Real-time variation of Minimax, enabling faster live animation generation.
Hunyuan: Powerful AI model from Tencent for high-quality video synthesis.
Kling Pro 1.5: High-resolution AI model built for detailed AI video generation.
Kling Pro 1.6: The latest iteration of Kling’s AI model with enhanced video fidelity.
Veo 2: Google DeepMind’s advanced video generation model.
Layer’s model-agnostic approach means that gamedevs can leverage the best AI tools available without worrying about constant integration and optimization headaches. Whether you’re building things like detailed 2D environments, generating 3D models to bring into Unreal or Unity, or crafting videos ads for UA campaigns - Layer always has your back.
