Strengths & weaknesses

Strengths

  • Up to 720p at 60 FPS on high-end consumer GPUs; a 360p tier for wider gaming-PC support
  • Apache-2.0 open weights
  • Runs locally via the Biome installer or in-browser via Overworld.stream

Weaknesses

  • 512-frame context length
  • No text prompting listed on the model card (image/video conditioning only)

Parameter count inconsistent on the model card (1.2B in text vs 2B in HF metadata). Successor Waypoint 2 ('latest frontier world model', text or image input) is invite-only beta with no date or specs published — not added. 60 FPS quoted for the 720p tier as 'up to'.
