AiMation Debuts 'Non Player Combat,' AI-Driven Survival Show on YouTube

The studio says it produced four episodes in under two months for about $28,000 using a proprietary simulation workflow.

Overview

  • The first episode released December 8 on YouTube and AiMation’s iOS microstreamer, with additional episodes arriving weekly.
  • Six photorealistic agents with extensive psychological backstories compete on a simulated island where outcomes emerge from autonomous decisions rather than a script.
  • AiMation reports that episodes are edited from simulation logs, with no preplanned eliminations or winners.
  • The five-person team built the series with its Omnigen pipeline, an in-house reasoning engine, ElevenLabs voices, and Seedance/ByteDance generative models.
  • The launch is positioned as a proof of rapid, low-cost AI-driven long-form production compared with traditional reality formats.
