GBQA: A Game Benchmark for Evaluating LLMs as Quality Assurance Engineers

The autonomous discovery of bugs remains a significant challenge in modern software development. Compared to code generation, the complexity of dynamic runtime environments makes bug discovery considerably harder for large language models (LLMs). In this paper, we take game development as a representative domain and introduce the Game Benchmark for Quality Assurance (GBQA), a benchmark containing 30 games and 124 human-verified bugs across three difficulty levels, to evaluate whether LLMs can autonomously detect software bugs. The benchmark is constructed using a multi-agent system that develops games and injects bugs in a scalable manner, with human experts in the loop to ensure correctness. Moreover, we provide a baseline interactive agent equipped with a multi-round ReAct loop and a memory mechanism, enabling long-horizon exploration of game environments for bug detection across different LLMs. Extensive experiments on frontier LLMs demonstrate that autonomous bug discovery remains highly challenging: the best-performing model, Claude-4.6-Opus in thinking mode, identifies only 48.39% of the verified bugs. We believe GBQA provides an adequate testbed and evaluation criterion, and that further progress on it will help close the gap in autonomous software engineering.

FURINA: A Fully Customizable Role-Playing Benchmark via Scalable Multi-Agent Collaboration Pipeline

As large language models (LLMs) advance in role-playing (RP) tasks, existing benchmarks quickly become obsolete due to their narrow scope, outdated interaction paradigms, and limited adaptability across diverse application scenarios. To address this gap, we introduce FURINA-Builder, a novel multi-agent collaboration pipeline that automatically constructs fully customizable RP benchmarks at any scale. It enables evaluation of arbitrary characters across diverse scenarios and prompt formats, as the first benchmark builder in RP area for adaptable assessment. FURINA-Builder simulates dialogues between a test character and other characters drawn from a well-constructed character-scene pool, while an LLM judge selects fine-grained evaluation dimensions and adjusts the test character's responses into final test utterances. Using this pipeline, we build FURINA-Bench, a new comprehensive role-playing benchmark featuring both established and synthesized test characters, each assessed with dimension-specific evaluation criteria. Human evaluation and preliminary separability analysis justify our pipeline and benchmark design. We conduct extensive evaluations of cutting-edge LLMs and find that o3 and DeepSeek-R1 achieve the best performance on English and Chinese RP tasks, respectively. Across all models, established characters consistently outperform synthesized ones, with reasoning capabilities further amplifying this disparity. Interestingly, we observe that model scale does not monotonically reduce hallucinations. More critically, for reasoning LLMs, we uncover a novel trade-off: reasoning improves RP performance but simultaneously increases RP hallucinations. This trade-off extends to a broader Pareto frontier between RP performance and reliability for all LLMs. These findings demonstrate the effectiveness of FURINA-Builder and the challenge posed by FURINA-Bench.

HAMLET: A Hierarchical and Adaptive Multi-Agent Framework for Live Embodied Theatrics

Creating an immersive and interactive theatrical experience is a long-term goal in the field of interactive narrative. The emergence of large language models (LLMs) provides a new path to achieve this goal. However, existing drama generation methods often produce LLMs that lack initiative and cannot interact with the physical scene, while typically requiring detailed input that diminishes the immersion of live performance. To address these challenges, we propose HAMLET, a hierarchical adaptive multi-agent framework focused on drama creation and real-time online performance. Given a simple topic, the framework initially generates a narrative blueprint to guide the subsequent improvisational performance. During online performance, each actor is equipped with an adaptive reasoning module that enables decision-making based on their personas, memories, goals during complex group chat scenarios. Beyond dialogue, actor agents engage in embodied interactions by changing the state of scene props through actions such as opening a letter or picking up a weapon, which are broadcast to update the global environmental context. To objectively assess the quality of live embodied theatrics, we establish a comprehensive evaluation method and introduce HAMLETJudge, a specialized critic model for automated evaluation. Experimental results demonstrate that HAMLET excels in creating expressive, coherent, and physically interactive theatrical experiences in an autonomous manner.
