Google’s newest image generation and editing model, Gemini 2.5 Flash Image, is now available on Layer. 

This is a big upgrade for game studios - giving you advanced control, higher fidelity images, and new editing workflows that make it easier to go from idea to in-game asset.

While Gemini 2.5 is amazing visually, what really sets this model apart is its creative control. You can fuse multiple images, maintain character consistency across generations, and even make natural language edits to fine-tune results. This makes it the perfect choice for creating more complex game scenes with multiple characters, items, and backgrounds all working together.

Combined with Gemini’s world knowledge, it opens the door to more accurate, flexible, and production-ready image workflows.

Why it matters for game teams

Gemini 2.5 Flash Image is designed for creators that need both speed and precision. It delivers clean outputs with fewer artifacts while introducing powerful editing capabilities that reduce the need for external tools.

This makes it ideal for:

  • Game Character pipelines - Generate characters once and reuse them consistently across scenes, poses, and edits.

  • In-game items and props - Apply accurate edits like material changes, lighting adjustments, or pose swaps with a single prompt.

  • UI, signage, and templates - Create uniform assets that stay consistent across iterations and styles.

  • Worldbuilding and concept art - Fuse multiple inputs into one coherent scene, perfect for complex compositions.

Character consistency

Gemini 2.5 Flash Image can keep game elements like characters or objects consistent across multiple prompts and edits. Whether you’re creating NPCs that appear in different environments or iterating on a hero character, you’ll get a consistent look without having to generate a ton of iterations.

Prompt-based editing

From simple fixes to complex transformations, you can edit with natural language. Blur backgrounds, tweak wardrobe details, adjust lighting, or even remove entire objects - all with one instruction, no layers or masks required. This goes hand in hand with our Refine tools, where you can bring in images and edit specific elements with ease.

Multi-image fusion

Google Gemini 2.5 Flash understands and merges multiple inputs, letting you place objects into new environments or restyle entire scenes. This is especially useful for prototyping levels, testing compositions, or quickly iterating on different styles for your game.

World knowledge

Because it’s built on Gemini, the model understands context and real-world details in a way earlier models didn’t. That makes it better at rendering accurate props, environments, and visual references for games rooted in the “real world”.
