Four Google DeepMind agents running on Gemini 4 Argon beat Minecraft. They did so without human input or predefined roles. The agents coordinated, wrote programs, and exchanged messages on their own. They died 605 times over 27 hours and 14 minutes. The session cost $1,620 at the 2027 standard price. Minecraft is the latest game beaten by agentic AI models. Such feats once required purpose-built systems trained from scratch.
