Player-1-9B-GGUF

Player-1-9B is a 9.6B open-weights vision-language-action model for generalist game control, built on Qwen3.5-9B and described in "Player-1: Learning to Play from Synthetic Experience" (arXiv:2610.20584). It reads gameplay screenshots, writes step-by-step reasoning and outputs keyboard and mouse actions as tool calls. These cover relative or absolute mouse movement, clicks and key presses, each held for 200 ms per step. Training had two stages. First, SFT on the Player-1-Data set, with 6,044 trajectories from 172 games and action-balanced sampling. Then PPO reinforcement learning in Player-1-Gym, across 16 synthetic 2D and 3D environments with verifiable game-state rewards. The card lists its evaluation suites: Player-1-Gym (16 environments), MineDojo-300 (Minecraft tasks), ViZDoom-10 (shooter maps) and GameWorld (170 tasks across 34 browser and arcade games). It gives no scores for any of them, so results are only in the paper and project page. It is served with vLLM using a custom Player-1 chat template, auto tool choice and the Qwen3 reasoning parser, with a 16,384-token context and up to five images per prompt. Training, evaluation and environment code is in the Tencent ARC GitHub repository. The weights are Apache 2.0.
