ReactiveGWM: Steering NPC in Reactive Game World Models

arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2605.15256v1 Announce Type: new Current game world models simulate environments from a subjective, player-centric perspective. However, by treating the Non-Player Character (NPC) merely as background pixels, these models cannot capture interactions between the player and NPC. In that sense, they act as passive video renderers rather than real simulation engines, lacking the physical understanding needed to model action-induced NPC reactivities. We
