CN-122003281-A - System and method for generating game world population and player customization

Abstract

Systems, processes, and device configurations for generating game world fills and player customizations are provided. The method may include detecting player data of at least one player of the electronic game, including interactions of the player with elements of the electronic game in the game, and determining at least one element for populating a game area of the electronic game based on the player data. Generating the game world population may include selecting or generating templates for populating the game area. The generative fill may use in-game player interactions to one or more of set a display style for at least one element, generate an adaptive storyline for an electronic game, insert a new storyline into the electronic game, and generate an audio output and a music output for the electronic game. The process may include generating a new game area for the electronic game using a game world generation model trained on player interactions in the game.
