New generative game engine simulates real-time multi-player combat

Researchers have developed WanToFight, a novel generative game engine capable of simulating real-time, two-player combat scenarios. This engine addresses the limitations of previous systems by integrating multi-player control, real-time inference, complex physical interactions, and adversarial gameplay. Built upon the Wan-1.3B video diffusion transformer, WanToFight achieves 30 frames per second on a single NVIDIA RTX 5090, making it the first generative engine to combine these advanced features.
