MultiWorldBench: Do Independently Controlled Views Describe One Shared World?

Abstract

Multiplayer world models must ensure that independently controlled views remain consistent with one shared and persistent world. We introduce MultiWorldBench, a diagnostic Minecraft benchmark containing 495 case configurations across seven task suites and ten capabilities, including independent control, cross-view motion, shared-state synchronization, persistence, structural reasoning, concurrent interaction, and delayed revisit. We evaluate Solaris, Gamma-World, and MineWorld, using Engine GT as a reference. Gamma-World achieves the highest ten-capability average among the generated systems at 21.39, followed by Solaris at 20.88 and MineWorld at 1.89, while Engine GT reaches 91.69. Gamma-World performs better on several control, shared-state, and revisit capabilities, whereas Solaris leads in cross-view motion and race-condition consistency. Nevertheless, all generated systems score at most 8.00 on state persistence and 1.33 on structural consistency, and none succeeds in spatial reasoning or building-identity preservation. Human preferences produce the same overall ranking and show strong alignment with the automatic evaluation, with a mean dimension-level Spearman correlation of 0.96. These results show that plausible individual views do not yet constitute a coherent multiplayer world.
