Model reference · open weights
Matrix-Game-2.0 is an open-weight video model from Skywork. AxForge deploys and operates it for you on dedicated EU-owned hardware — with the licence handled where one is required.
Available as managed deployment — configured and operated for you on dedicated EU hardware, quoted per deployment.

About
Matrix-Game-2.0(1.8B) is an interactive world model generates long videos on-the-fly via few-step auto-regressive diffusion
Matrix-Game-2.0(1.8B) is derived from the Wan. By removing the text branch and adding action modules, the model predicts next frames only from visual contents and corresponding actions.
| Model | Image Quality ↑ | Aesthetic Quality ↑ | Temporal Cons. ↑ | Motion Smooth. ↑ | Keyboard Acc. ↑ | Mouse Acc. ↑ | Object Cons. | Scenario Cons. |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Oasis | 0.27 | 0.27 | 0.82 | 0.99 | 0.73 | 0.56 | 0.18 | 0.84 |
| Ours | 0.61 | 0.50 | 0.94 | 0.98 | 0.91 | 0.95 | 0.64 | 0.80 |
Metric Descriptions:
Image Quality / Aesthetic: Visual fidelity and perceptual appeal of generated frames
Temporal Consistency / Motion Smoothness: Temporal coherence and smoothness between frames
Keyboard Accuracy / Mouse Accuracy: Accuracy in following user control signals
Object Consistency: Geometric stability and consistency of objects over time
Scenario Consistency: Scenario consistency over time
Please check our GameWorld benchmark for detailed implementation.

How it works
Using it via the API
Once AxForge deploys matrix-game-2-0 for you, it answers on the OpenAI-compatible API — the same base URL and keys as every other model. (matrix-game-2-0 below is illustrative; you get the exact model name on deployment.)
$ curl -sS https://api.axforge.ai/v1/videos/generations \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $AXFORGE_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"model":"matrix-game-2-0","prompt":"a drone shot over a forest"}'
