Skywork has launched Matrix-Game 2.0, a groundbreaking open-source world model designed for real-time, long-sequence interactive experiences. Drawing parallels to DeepMind’s Genie 3, this community-accessible model boasts impressive features, including 25FPS video, the ability to generate minutes-long, smooth video sequences, and full interactivity enabling users to move, rotate, and explore virtual environments like cities and diverse terrains.

Trained on a vast dataset of 1,350 hours sourced from Unreal Engine and GTA5, Matrix-Game 2.0 demonstrates strong generalization capabilities, accurately simulating physics across various scenes. Notably, Skywork claims the model can operate efficiently on a single GPU, making it accessible to a wider range of users.
