Web3.unity

web3.unity is an open-source software development kit (SDK) created by ChainSafe Gaming to enable developers to integrate blockchain functionality into games built with the Unity engine. It supports a wide range of Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatible blockchains including Ethereum, Polygon, Avalanche, Binance Smart Chain, and others, allowing developers to build cross-chain compatible blockchain games and applications. The SDK is designed to simplify blockchain interactions within Unity projects by providing modular components, prefabs, and sample scripts that reduce the complexity of connecting to wallets, minting NFTs, and interacting with smart contracts.

The SDK supports multiple platforms such as WebGL (web browsers), iOS, Android, and desktop, making it versatile for developers targeting various devices. Key features include in-game and no-code NFT minting, voucher-based NFT minting, integrated NFT marketplaces, wallet support for desktop and mobile, social login options, digital signature verification, and support for multiple token standards (ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155). Developers can easily drag and drop the Web3Unity prefab into their Unity scenes to start blockchain interactions with minimal setup.

What sets web3.unity apart is its focus on seamless integration with Unity, the most widely used game engine, combined with support for multiple EVM chains and a modular architecture that allows developers to customize blockchain interactions. The SDK is actively maintained with community support via Discord and GitHub, and extensive documentation including tutorials, sample projects, and API references is available. This makes it a practical choice for game studios and developers looking to add blockchain features such as NFTs, token economies, and decentralized marketplaces to their Unity games.

To get started, developers can install the SDK via Unity’s package manager, add the Web3Unity prefab to their scene, and use provided APIs to interact with blockchain contracts. The project encourages contributions and community engagement, with active channels for support and feature requests. This makes web3.unity a robust foundation for building blockchain-enabled games and interactive experiences on Unity.
