The method includes: responding to a target player's selection operation on a target second virtual character, setting a first virtual character and the target second virtual character into a target virtual skill linkage state; responding to the target second virtual character releasing a target virtual skill, determining a second target location of the target virtual skill, generating and displaying a second movement trajectory between the target second virtual character and the second target location, and controlling the target second virtual character to move along the second movement trajectory towards the second target location; setting the second target location as the target location of the target virtual skill of the first virtual character, and after the first virtual character releases the target virtual skill, generating and displaying a first movement trajectory between the first virtual character and the second target location, and controlling the first virtual character to move along the first movement trajectory towards the second target location.
