Unity, a game engine development company, has announced the introduction of several blockchain-based integration options to its platform. The new options provide opportunities for developers who will be able to take advantage of digital identity, tokens, non-fungible tokens (NFT) and other technologies with direct integration into the Unity engine.
Unity, one of the largest companies in the gaming industry, has announced support for a number of new blockchain technologies in its engine. The options, which are developer-focused, will allow users to gain real ownership of their in-game assets, as well as manage tokens and digital identity solutions that can be exported to the real world.
This means that developers will be able to take advantage of and integrate these technologies into their games in a streamlined way, focusing on building experiences rather than the technical issues that stem from complex blockchain implementations. This includes designing games to serve model-based games and also NFT-focused experiences.
The “verified solution” technologies include 13 different software development kits for integrating blockchain services. Aikon Ore ID, Algorand, Altura, Aptos Labs, Dapper Labs, Immutable X, Infura, Metamask, Nefta, Pocketful of Quarters, Solana, Tezos and Truffle are the decentralized solutions available for different purposes.
Some of these tools include wallets for token management, others are focused on facilitating the management of digital identity processes in virtual worlds, and others offer options for metaverse creation.
These “verified solutions” are available for free from the Unity Asset Store, meaning that even small developers can use them for training and to build small apps that integrate blockchain, lowering the bar for access to such tools.
Unity is already being used in metaverse gaming powerhouses like The Sandbox and Decentraland, which are two of the most famous blockchain-powered experiences on the market.
John Riccitiello, CEO of Unity, has declared his optimism regarding the use of these technologies in the not-so-distant future. In June, Riccitiello stated that his vision included the transformation of the internet into a series of interconnected metaverse sites by 2030.
At the time, Riccitiello stated that more than 50% of real-time experiences available in the gaming market are built using Unity tools, making this move even more important for the integration of these technologies into already existing games.
