AceAction-5M: Hierarchical Goals for Generalist Action Learning Across 3D Game Worlds

원문 초록

Video games provide a practical setting for collecting vision-language-action (VLA) data, whose acquisition in physical environments is costly. Existing datasets, however, remain limited by restricted game coverage, sparse language supervision, or temporal hierarchies that do not necessarily reflect changes in task objectives. We introduce AceAction, a dataset of human gameplay across multiple 3D games for learning skill composition and subgoal transitions. AceAction organizes demonstrations around complete tasks, linking overall instructions, ordered subgoals, and local skill instructions to temporally aligned visual observations and keyboard-and-mouse actions. To construct these annotations, we develop a vision-language model pipeline that identifies subgoals from changes in objectives or interaction targets, anchors navigation goals to visually recognizable waypoints, and composes adjacent subgoals into task instructions. The resulting demonstrations cover navigation, reconnaissance, combat, interaction, and recovery, with explicit stage boundaries that connect task progression to fine-grained control. We assess annotation quality through model-based verification and human inspection. An audit of 500 trajectories yields a 95.8% pass rate across independent reviewer assessments. AceAction provides a data foundation for studying how agents execute, combine, and switch skills to follow complex instructions in dynamic game environments.
