Game development platform Unity has added a number of crypto platforms to its asset store to help developers interested in Web3 technology streamline decentralization efforts.
On February 28, Unity said it had launched a new “Decentralization” category page in their asset store, with crypto platforms “vetted” to support developers interested in merging decentralization into their projects.
The cryptocurrency wallet provider MetaMask was one of the 13 platforms included in the storewith its software development kit (SDK) added to help developers allow users to connect their MetaMask wallet to “any game built in Unity.”

The release of the MetaMask SDK on the Unity Asset Store will allow developers to connect their games to the wallet, making it easier for users to interact with web3-enabled features within the game itself. Get ready for a new level of gaming!
Other blockchains, including Solana and Tezos also had their SDKs added to the store, along with the ImmutableX developer platform, for those wishing to build Web3 games on the Ethereum blockchain..
The integrations will allow developers modify “ownership models” in games and will make it easier for players to create, earn, or acquire in-game resourceswhich can later be traded or sold, according to Unity.
A recent report from DappRadar revealed that lThe players represented almost half (48%) of all blockchain activity in January 2023.
The report claimed that increasing media coverage with announcements and news related to Web3 gaming contributes to an increase in activity.
Sara Gherghelas, a blockchain analyst at DappRadar, previously told Cointelegraph that blockchain gaming is already “a vertical” in the traditional industry. Gherghelas considers that As blockchain technology gains more momentum, it will also bring “more adoption” to Web3 games, which will “become popular.”.
Meanwhile, Illivium co-founder Kieran Warwick told Cointelegraph on Jan. 24 that the “biggest challenge” with blockchain gaming right now is getting “casual gamers” into the market due to the perception that blockchain gaming is “substandard”.
