MT‑WAM enhances the Fast‑WAM framework by adding complementary supervision for future 2‑D point trajectories and visual features while keeping the original training objectives. A lightweight dual‑stream branch and structured attention mask isolate motion‑specific processing, and motion‑stream tokens provide additional dynamics cues to the action expert. During inference, MT‑WAM skips future‑video prediction, using cached video and motion information to achieve higher success rates on LIBERO, LIBERO‑Plus, RoboTwin 2.0 Clean2Rand, and several real‑world tasks.

GameWAM is the first World-Action Model designed for native closed-loop gameplay and GUI control in modern video games. It jointly generates future visual observations and executable keyboard-mouse trajectories using parallel visual and action generative processes, block-causal conditioning, and flow matching. The model predicts gameplay/GUI mode at each step, handles heterogeneous native controls, and employs block-cycle control for long-horizon interaction, achieving competitive task success with fewer native actions than prior agents.
