With modern video games surpassing every set of expectations in terms of graphics, game play, mechanics and hardware support, Artificial Intelligence in video games has also come a long way, from when it was first implemented in 1951. Although every set of games has an AI unique to itself, many of the algorithms are now developed such that they can be implemented in various games without any major changes in coding. But this could lead to the players exploiting AI in a single game to break the other games as well. Though this could be easily fixed by changing some minor fragments of algorithms, it would very well be an efficient way of developing complex AI for many games at once. This paper focuses on providing a cost-efficient way to implement AI algorithms that would benefit most of the upcoming and future games that will depend on AI to make themselves more dynamic to the players. This is done by taking the examples of various AI algorithms implemented in games like Pacman, Dota2, Tom Clancy's- The Division and many more.
