Capture the Flag: the emergence of complex cooperative agents

Read about our new work below, in “Human Comparable Agents” and “Going Further”

Mastering the strategy, tactical understanding, and team play involved in multiplayer video games represents a critical challenge for AI research. In our latest paper now published in the journal Science, we present new developments in reinforcement learning, resulting in human-level performance in Quake III Arena Capture the Flag. Furthermore, we show how these methods have managed to scale beyond research Capture the Flag environments to the full game of Quake III Arena.
