Amazon Web Services has launched "AWS Cloud Quest 2.0," a new version of its online game "AWS Cloud Quest" where users can learn AWS technologies in a 3D open world.
The title is an online game played via a web browser. Players explore a city as cloud engineers, developing the town by solving the problems of people they encounter using AWS solutions.
This update introduces a feature for interacting with virtual customers powered by AI. Players experience the process of clarifying requirements through dialogue with these virtual customers. By receiving real-time feedback, players are required to hone their questioning and communication skills, as well as their ability to judge technical trade-offs.
Ultimately, players must correctly translate the gathered requirements into an AWS solution. According to the introductory video, when a solution that meets the requirements is successfully built, the customer's satisfaction is displayed as a numerical value, and the virtual customer celebrates with applause.
Additionally, the 3D presentation has been reconstructed to be richer, including a wider variety of avatar settings. It has also been confirmed that the introductory section is available in Japanese.
