Artificial intelligence is increasingly entering digital games through diverse functions. While prior work has shown that player attitudes toward game AI are strongly context-dependent, less is known about how these attitudes are structurally combined within different groups of players. This study addresses this gap by modeling players' cross-context AI acceptance as interpretable attitude profiles. Based on questionnaire data from 771 digital game players, we apply Archetypal Analysis (AA) to centered acceptance ratings across eight representative AI application contexts in games. The analysis identifies seven distinctive profiles: AI-Skeptics, Broad AI-Supporters, Creative-Play Explorers, Experience-Oriented Supporters, Systemic Order Advocates, Emotion-Centered Supporters, and Governance-Skeptics. Exploratory one-vs-rest (OvR) logistic regressions further suggest that profile membership is associated with players' perceived AI literacy, gaming habits, disciplinary background, personality traits, and application-specific priorities. By shifting attention from isolated acceptance judgments to patterned preference structures, this study provides an exploratory empirical vocabulary for segmenting game AI audiences and offers preliminary design implications for more context-sensitive and player-sensitive AI integration in digital games.
