Massively Multiagent Minigames for Training Generalist Agents

We present Meta MMO, a collection of many-agent minigames for use as a reinforcement learning benchmark. Meta MMO is built on top of Neural MMO, a massively multiagent environment that has been the subject of two previous NeurIPS competitions. Our work expands Neural MMO with several computationally efficient minigames. We explore generalization across Meta MMO by learning to play several minigames with a single set of weights. We release the environment, baselines, and training code under the MIT license. We hope that Meta MMO will spur additional progress on Neural MMO and, more generally, will serve as a useful benchmark for many-agent generalization.

Neural MMO 2.0: A Massively Multi-task Addition to Massively Multi-agent Learning

Neural MMO 2.0 is a massively multi-agent environment for reinforcement learning research. The key feature of this new version is a flexible task system that allows users to define a broad range of objectives and reward signals. We challenge researchers to train agents capable of generalizing to tasks, maps, and opponents never seen during training. Neural MMO features procedurally generated maps with 128 agents in the standard setting and support for up to. Version 2.0 is a complete rewrite of its predecessor with three-fold improved performance and compatibility with CleanRL. We release the platform as free and open-source software with comprehensive documentation available at neuralmmo.github.io and an active community Discord. To spark initial research on this new platform, we are concurrently running a competition at NeurIPS 2023.
