In the press release, Unity highlighted that in the “Decentralization” category page, developers will be able to find verified solutions for digital asset management, building on blockchain networks, smart contract setups, and other solutions.
Unity noted that in video games, decentralization is applied through “in-game ownership.” The ownership allows players to “create, earn, or obtain in-game resources that they can sell or trade.”
In total, Unity is suggesting 13 verified solutions. The list includes services offered by companies like Algorand, Nefta, Immutable X, Pocketful of Quarters, and Dapper Labs. In particular, Dapper Labs will allow Unity developers to “integrate their games and applications with the Flow blockchain.”
On top of that, Unity partnered with Tezos and Solana. Tezos software development kit (SDK) will allow developers to link “player accounts across games, minting and trading of in-game items and currencies, and more.” On the other hand, Solana’s SDK will let Unity game developers easily integrate “Solana-based NFTs, tokens, and on-chain programs.”
The “Decentralization” category page includes several solutions offered by ConsenSys, such as Infura, MetaMask, and Truffle. Based on the announcement, ConsenSys’ Infura will provide creators with a set of tools helping “developers build and connect to any EVM-compatible blockchain.”
MetaMask celebrated the news on Twitter by stating:
The launch of the MetaMask SDK in the Unity Asset Store will allow devs to connect their games to the <MetaMask> wallet, enabling users to interact with Web3-enabled features within the game itself. Get ready for a whole new level of gameplay!
In its Twitter thread, MetaMask highlighted that this integration will bring a “whole new era for gaming” developers and “Web3 values to the gaming industry.”
