Abstract

We introduce Voyager, the first LLM-powered embodied lifelong learning agent in Minecraft that continuously explores the world, acquires diverse skills, and makes novel discoveries without human intervention. Voyager consists of three key components: 1) an automatic curriculum that maximizes exploration, 2) an ever-growing skill library of executable code for storing and retrieving complex behaviors, and 3) a new iterative prompting mechanism that incorporates environment feedback, execution errors, and self-verification for program improvement. Voyager interacts with GPT-4 via blackbox queries, which bypasses the need for model parameter fine-tuning. The skills developed by Voyager are temporally extended, interpretable, and compositional, which compounds the agent's abilities rapidly and alleviates catastrophic forgetting. Empirically, Voyager shows strong in-context lifelong learning capability and exhibits exceptional proficiency in playing Minecraft. It obtains 3.3x more unique items, travels 2.3x longer distances, and unlocks key tech tree milestones up to 15.3x faster than prior SOTA. Voyager is able to utilize the learned skill library in a new Minecraft world to solve novel tasks from scratch, while other techniques struggle to generalize.

Voyager discovers new Minecraft items and skills continually by self-driven exploration, significantly outperforming the baselines.

Introduction

Building generally capable embodied agents that continuously explore, plan, and develop new skills in open-ended worlds is a grand challenge for the AI community. Classical approaches employ reinforcement learning (RL) and imitation learning that operate on primitive actions, which could be challenging for systematic exploration, interpretability, and generalization. Recent advances in large language model (LLM) based agents harness the world knowledge encapsulated in pre-trained LLMs to generate consistent action plans or executable policies. They are applied to embodied tasks like games and robotics, as well as NLP tasks without embodiment. However, these agents are not lifelong learners that can progressively acquire, update, accumulate, and transfer knowledge over extended time spans.

Let us consider Minecraft as an example. Unlike most other games studied in AI, Minecraft does not impose a predefined end goal or a fixed storyline but rather provides a unique playground with endless possibilities. An effective lifelong learning agent should have similar capabilities as human players: (1) propose suitable tasks based on its current skill level and world state, e.g., learn to harvest sand and cactus before iron if it finds itself in a desert rather than a forest; (2) refine skills based on environment feedback and commit mastered skills to memory for future reuse in similar situations (e.g. fighting zombies is similar to fighting spiders); (3) continually explore the world and seek out new tasks in a self-driven manner.

While official support for the DirectX 11 (DX11) version of Resident Evil 3 Remake technically ended on July 12, 2023, this version remains a "new" discovery for many players seeking better performance or specific mod compatibility. Initially removed in a 2022 "next-gen" update that mandated DirectX 12 for ray tracing, Capcom eventually restored the DX11 version as a separate Steam branch following significant community backlash. Why the DirectX 11 Version is Still Relevant

The Future: Why "Resident Evil 3 DirectX 11 New" Matters for Preservation

As graphics APIs evolve, older games risk being left behind. Microsoft is pushing DirectX 12 Ultimate and the upcoming DirectX 13. However, the Resident Evil 3 modding community has embraced DX11 as the preservation standard. New mods—including randomizers, HD texture packs, and even the "Infernal Nemesis" AI overhaul—are now being developed and tested primarily on DX11 for maximum compatibility.

, was reactivated after community feedback following a 2022 update that forced the game into DirectX 12 (DX12). How to Access the DirectX 11 Version

Method 1: The Steam Launch Option (Simplest)

  1. Open your Steam Library.
  2. Right-click Resident Evil 3 > Properties.
  3. Under Launch Options, type exactly: -force-d3d11
  4. Close the window and launch the game.
  5. Result: The game will skip the DX12 renderer. However, this vanilla DX11 mode may still have minor visual glitches.

Conclusion

In this work, we introduce Voyager, the first LLM-powered embodied lifelong learning agent, which leverages GPT-4 to explore the world continuously, develop increasingly sophisticated skills, and make new discoveries consistently without human intervention. Voyager exhibits superior performance in discovering novel items, unlocking the Minecraft tech tree, traversing diverse terrains, and applying its learned skill library to unseen tasks in a newly instantiated world. Voyager serves as a starting point to develop powerful generalist agents without tuning the model parameters.
