1. A method for controlling movement of a virtual item in a virtual scene performed at a computing device, comprising:

displaying a target virtual item to descend in a virtual scene;

determining an initial movement track of the target virtual item according to a first display position and a first speed of the target virtual item;

updating, in real time, the initial movement track of the target virtual item according to at least one of a randomly-determined environmental condition of the virtual scene and a health value of the target virtual item to obtain a target movement track; and

controlling the target virtual item to move in the virtual scene according to the target movement track until after the target virtual item arrives at a stationary position in the virtual scene.
