Matrix-Game 3.0: Real-Time and Streaming Interactive World Model with Long-Horizon Memory
📝 Overview
Matrix-Game-3.0 is an open-sourced, memory-augmented interactive world model designed for 720p real-time long-form video generation.
Framework Overview
Our framework unifies three stages into an end-to-end pipeline:
- Data Engine — an industrial-scale infinite data engine integrating Unreal Engine synthetic scenes, large-scale automated AAA game collection,and real-world video augmentation to produce high-quality Video-Pose-Action-Prompt quadruplets at scale;
- Model Training — a memory-augmented Diffusion Transformer (DiT) with an error buffer that learns action-conditioned generation with memory-enhanced long-horizon consistency;
- Inference Deployment — few-step sampling, INT8 quantization, and model distillation achieving 720p@40FPS real-time generation with a 5B model.
✨ Key Features
- 🚀 Feature 1: Upgraded Data Engine: Combines Unreal Engine-based synthetic data, large-scale automated AAA game data, and real-world video augmentation to generate high-quality Video–Pose–Action–Prompt data.
- 🖱️ Feature 2: Long-horizon Memory & Consistency: Uses prediction residuals and frame re-injection for self-correction, while camera-aware memory ensures long-term spatiotemporal consistency.
- 🎬 Feature 3: Real-Time Interactivity & Open Access: It employs a multi-segment autoregressive distillation strategy based on Distribution Matching Distillation (DMD), combined with model quantization and VAE decoder distillation to support [40fps] real-time generation at 720p resolution with a 5B model, while maintaining stable memory consistency over minute-long sequence.
- 👍 Feature 3: Scale Up 28B-MoE Model: Scaling up to a 2×14B model further improves generation quality, dynamics, and generalization.

🚀 Quick Start
Installation
Create a conda environment and install dependencies:
conda create -n matrix-game-3.0 python=3.12 -y
conda activate matrix-game-3.0
# install FlashAttention
# Our project also depends on [FlashAttention](https://github.com/Dao-AILab/flash-attention)
git clone https://github.com/SkyworkAI/Matrix-Game-3.0.git
cd Matrix-Game-3.0
pip install -r requirements.txt
Model Download
pip install "huggingface_hub[cli]"
huggingface-cli download Matrix-Game-3.0 --local-dir Matrix-Game-3.0
Inference
Before running inference, you need to prepare:
- Input image
- Text prompt
After downloading pretrained models, you can use the following command to generate an interactive video with random actions:
torchrun --nproc_per_node=$NUM_GPUS generate.py --size 704*1280 --dit_fsdp --t5_fsdp --ckpt_dir Matrix-Game-3.0 --fa_version 3 --use_int8 --num_iterations 12 --num_inference_steps 3 --image demo_images/000/image.png --prompt "a vintage gas station with a classic car parked under a canopy, set against a desert landscape." --save_name test --seed 42 --compile_vae --lightvae_pruning_rate 0.5 --vae_type mg_lightvae --output_dir ./output
# "num_iterations" refers to the number of iterations you want to generate. The total number of frames generated is given by:57 + (num_iterations - 1) * 40
Tips:
If you want to use the base model, you can use "--use_base_model --num_inference_steps 50". Otherwise if you want to generating the interactive videos with your own input actions, you can use "--interactive".
With multiple GPUs, you can pass --use_async_vae --async_vae_warmup_iters 1 to speed up inference.
