Character AI is continuously enhancing its Stories feature, which now appears to be in an internal beta phase. As described within the feature, the Story drop-down now shows up in the Create menu. When selected, users can choose a genre for their Story, with current options like Sci-Fi, Mystery, Horror, and more. This genre selection influences the type of image generated for the Story, with one image now representing the entire narrative.

The creation process follows a familiar setup: users select one or more characters, input a prompt, and scroll through auto-generated Stories. However, a notable new feature allows users to influence the Story’s direction. Character AI generates two follow-up options, letting users choose which path the Story will take. At the end, users can revisit the Story and even explore alternate endings if they wish.

There is no confirmed release date, and as the feature remains unannounced publicly, it is likely only accessible to a limited number of testers. That said, broader availability may be on the horizon if the company decides to make an official announcement.
