The five 3D object generators are based on its own Hunyuan3D-2.0 model, and the company intends to make them all open to users. The new AI systems will be able to be used in conjunction with Tencent’s proprietary 3D engine for games and other content.

Today, major tech companies from OpenAI to Alibaba are releasing new AI models at an astonishing rate. The emergence of startup DeepSeek, which has achieved success on par with world leaders at a fraction of the cost, has only accelerated this process. Earlier, Chinese search giant Baidu released Ernie 4.5, an updated version of its flagship AI model, as well as Ernie X1, a direct competitor to the reasoning DeepSeek R1.

Tencent also believes that it has no right to be in a position of catching up. In February, the company introduced the Hunyuan Turbo S model, which does not reason for a long time, like DeepSeek R1, but gives the fastest possible answers. Tencent also boasted that it was able to dramatically reduce the cost of deploying AI. 3D object generators are an area close to the company’s core gaming business; now studios are actively implementing AI at all stages of development, reducing the time it takes to bring new games to market.

Tencent doesn’t limit itself to its own projects — it has integrated DeepSeek R1 into a wide range of its products, from WeChat search to the Yuanbao chatbot. The latter even managed to briefly overtake DeepSeek itself in March and become the most downloaded iPhone app in China.
