‘The curse of MIXED is broken:’ Suda51 & Swery65’s Hotel Barcelona claws its way to ‘Mostly Positive’ on Steam after Hail Mary patch and scrubbing AI assets

Hotel Barcelona has changed its user review status on Steam from "Mixed" to "Mostly Positive" following updates from developer White Owls Inc. that addressed concerns about the game's use of generative AI. The game features a collaboration between Japanese creators Goichi "Suda51" Suda and Hidetaka "Swery65" Suehiro. Players initially criticized the game for "trying too hard," especially after discovering AI-generated assets. CULT Games issued an apology for this. The positive shift in reviews is attributed to the "Under New Management" patch released in March, which included significant changes such as enemy balance adjustments and the addition of five free skins. Hotel Barcelona is available on Steam, with a demo for players to try the new balance changes.
