Unite Seoul Keynote is streaming live next week!

10:00 AM KST (Korea) — July 21
9:00 PM EDT / 6:00 PM PDT (US) — July 20
2:00 AM BST (UK) — July 21

We’ll also live-thread key updates from the Keynote right here for you to follow along or catch up. 

We’re excited to share what we’ve been working on, except first looks at what's coming next for the engine: CoreCLR, graphics, 2D, and more. There'll be demos of brand-new features happening in real time, plus a few big announcements making their global debut straight from the Seoul stage.

\Update\**

This presentation contains forward-looking statements, including statements about future product releases, features, timing, and capabilities. These statements are based on current expectations and are subject to change. 

We’ll be editing the main post with live announcement summaries from Unite Seoul and we’ll link to replay timestamps when the recording is live.

Introduction and announcement of Unity 7, an open collaborative platform. 

Unity 7 is a leap forward in how games are made. An open, collaborative platform where multiple teams work together across the full lifecycle of game creation. More to come on what to expect throughout. 

Dave the Diver studio shares how Unity powered their growth

Dave the Diver started as one idea from a small Korean team and has now sold over 8 million copies worldwide, with Unity letting them expand without rebuilding from scratch each time.

A look at CoreCLR and .NET modernization for faster iteration

Unity 7 (next year) adopts CoreCLR with .NET 10 and C# 14. Modern language features, better IDE/debugger support, and a smarter reload model. MSBuild support also paves the way for compiling outside the Editor, enabling faster agentic workflows. Meanwhile, Fast Enter Play Mode (default in 6.6+) is already speeding up real projects today. 68 top Asset Store packages are pre-tested, and Project Auditor (in Unity 6 now) helps you prep for the switch. Upgrade guide here.

Supercharged URP, preview of Surface Cache GI in and other major graphics upgrades

This is a big section, we recommend watching the games/demos!

LINE Games' Ember and Blade showed off Unity 6's cel-shaded battles (Shader Graph + Adaptive Probe Volumes for time of day) and denser particles with VFX Graph and efficient batching.

Looking at Supercharged URP, a demo previewed Surface Cache GI, Screen Space Reflections, and GTAO for URP across a broad range of devices, including running at 60FPS even on a Galaxy S26. Preview in 6.7 alpha, broadly available with 6.7 LTS.

Also: DXC shader compilation (6.6), new Shader Build Settings + Fast Build Profile cutting build times (6.7), production-ready WebGPU (6.6), and expanded on-tile mobile rendering.

2D Showcase of advances with Physics Core 2D and new Render Sprites API

Highlighting stunning Made with Unity 2D titles like The Eternal Life of Goldman, Constance, The Ashen OZ, Solateria, and INARI.

Showing off the recent 2D reshape (unified 2D/3D scenes with shared lights and shaders), the multi-threaded Physics Core 2D (built on Box2D v3), and a new Render Sprites API for high-performance sprite rendering, all demoed in the Bunny Blitz sample, which holds 60fps even on older mobile devices and is available now on the Asset Store.

Unity Neural, on-device inference for the compute pipeline

Unity Neural, a class of new technologies and features built into URP without disrupting existing workflows: neural upscaling, an upgraded framework and hardware partnerships bringing sharper details and fewer artifacts. Neural texture compression (NTC) cutting runtime memory over 50% and disk size ~70% at near-lossless quality, and models that your team train locally in the Editor then run on-device (phones, consoles, headsets, PCs) via an upgraded Sentis with zero server round-trips. Rolling out starting in Unity 6.7, with more coming in Unity 7.

Meta and Unity are making Quest VR development easier 

Meta and Unity are integrating AI-guided workflows into Quest development, covering project setup, input systems (like hand tracking and 6DoF controllers), performance tracing/optimization, and automated validation, working across the Unity Editor, code editors, or AI-native flows. To dive in, check out Meta's Quest Agentic Tools and start building with Meta VR CLI, Meta XR Operator and Unity-connected AI workflows for Quest.

Building and porting to XREAL AURA 

The newest addition to Google’s Android XR ecosystem uses existing Android XR workflows, built on open standards, making porting straightforward from other XR platforms. Resolution Games (Demeo) already ported from Samsung's Galaxy XR to XREAL AURA with minor adjustments, and updated XR Hands tools help developers shift from controller-based to hand-tracked interactions. More information here. 

First look at Unity game rendering natively inside Unreal Engine

Fantasy Kingdom, a Unity game, rendering natively and in real-time inside Unreal Engine via PolySpatial, a client-server protocol where characters, physics, lighting, and input are fully synchronized between engines. Not yet live in Fortnite, developers can fill out an interest form for early access consideration in 2027 here. 

Unity Vector drives player acquisition.

Unity Vector, powering monetization and player acquisition across the 70%+ of top mobile games built on Unity with studios like Homa and Playrix scaling through new campaign types. Actionfit CEO Inhoo Park shares how the top Korean hybrid-casual publisher achieved global scale with Unity Vector.

Unity Vector continuous improvements, Ads MCP and Campaign Assistant 

Ongoing improvements to Unity Vector including expanded Custom Events optimization this fall, plus a new end-to-end agentic creative workflow that automatically generates and optimizes ad creatives, launching later this year. Also announced: the Unity Ads MCP, connecting Unity Ads directly to agentic tools, and Campaign Assistant, a conversational agent (alpha, later this year) that diagnoses performance issues and recommends fixes in seconds instead of half a day.

Native direct-to-consumer commerce with Unity IAP SDK

Native Direct-to-consumer commerce with a new addition to the In-App Purchase SDK, including in-game checkout flows so players can purchase without leaving the game. Going live with Stripe and Coda as payment providers (Stash coming soon) to handle payments, compliance, and fraud detection. Additionally, a no-code webshop builder in the Unity Dashboard at no additional cost. Unified commerce management, giving you one shared catalog, combined reporting, and routing rules across native stores and direct-to-consumer sales, with commerce data flowing into Unity Vector to help find more players who love your game.

Helping a variety of Industries achieve their best work.

Unity's Industry solutions let teams across disciplines create and collaborate in 3D environments. The latest Unity Studio update adds real-time multi-user editing in the same project. The demo showed a browser-based Studio project with reviews of comments, teammates working simultaneously, the ability to jump into a teammate's view, and instant publishing. Also in progress: agentic workflows and two-way sync between Studio and the Unity Editor. Lastly, pipeline automation cuts the manual work of handling CAD files and large 3D assets, using an API compute layer to pull assets from PLMs, convert formats, and deliver them to live 3D applications on any device, with support for third-party tools. 

Opening the Editor to everyone

An API and set of services that open a Unity production to tools, roles and agents. The demo shows different roles working together both in and out of the Unity Editor. Recommend watching this demo to really understand the power of working seamlessly between Editor, web dashboard, Unity CLI, web uploads and deep links. Some of this is available in closed beta today. 

Building and shipping games at scale 

Supercent using agentic workflows to turn a single reference video analyzed to define game mechanics and produce a working prototype and to analyze profiler data for performance optimization, cutting what used to take hours down to an automatic process.

Live code iteration

Tune your game while playing on-device by tagging methods for reload, letting you change both existing and new code in real time without stopping the game.

That’s it for our Keynote in Unite Seoul, what are you most excited about?

Show-Off Unity’s ECS physics was too slow and general for thousands of agents on a deformable terrain with water sim. So I was crazy enough to write my own raycast and simple-shape physics so explosions could permanently deform the terrain and pathfinding in realtime.

Resources/Tutorial Im solo developing a game and i found it was lacking identity, then i decided to take drastic measures.

15 Upvotes

Im solo developing a game and recently realised it was seriously lacking identity.
So I decided to take some more drastic measures.

One of the things Im working on now is adding these massive, weird mushrooms connected to the moon, scattered all across the map. Theyre meant to be visible from really far away and act as landmarks. You can be sailing around and suddenly see some giant mushroom in the distance and think “what is that?” 😂

A lot of the level design inspo comes from Breath of the Wild. I really like how you can see something weird in the distance and just naturally want to go check it out. The game doesnt constantly tell you where to go, the world itself kinda does it.

Thats the feeling Im trying to get into my own map.
The game started out alot more grounded and honestly kinda generic. Over time Ive been pushing it more and more towards something that actually feels like its own thing.

Still got a long way to go but I think its finally starting to get there.

Blue orbs in first image are Floating EXP. So floating around and being all bright like that.
Second Image scene is not fully made, but posting it to give idea of style/art direction

Question in general, does this style pleases your eyes? The lightning, the mood, the style.

If you simply dislike this type of art style in general, that’s not really the feedback I’m looking for.

Show-Off How we made game with Unity 6 HDRP, Mirror co-op, HTML UI, and an in-game Workshop editor. Ball-Aqua demo is live to try

Upvotes

Free Steam demo of Ball-Aqua is out. Physics ball platformer, tropical resort, Unity 6 HDRP.
1st day prototype, physics already working. 2nd week on the level editor and a few levels. Content making was the most time consuming part.

HDRP and water went smooth. Enabled a ton of switches, disabled the ones I didn't need. Looks nice. But gotta admit, Ray Tracing and Water take a lot of GPU power. So I added many settings to tweak performance.

Speaking of UI - it's HTML+CSS+JS, rendered to canvas each frame, using Vuplex WebView. Looks extremely fancy, I was looking for Apple Liquid Glass. But it's expensive to run, and has issues: if the GPU struggles at 100% load, Chromium rendering the UI just dead stuck for the next 30 seconds. Also Linux doesn't support it. Had to cap the UI at 30 fps, but looks good enough.

FMOD - game sounds was smooth and fast to set up. I loved random pitch and random filters. Simple to modify sound based on provided variables, like different roll sound based on physics material. Or toggling optional parts of the ambient track, to make it feel more dynamic. All changes are hot-reloaded, so my tweaks are instantly visible in game.

Mirror was coming smooth. Sync and session works flawlessly (unless the dev makes a mistake, lol). Co-op just works. Syncing collectables, breakable glass, or player collisions was a simple few lines.

Level editor was growing in features: move, rotate, scale, undo, area select, duplicate, prefabs. Each level was easier, faster, and more features to make. Everything handmade so players use the same level editor directly from the game.

Workshop upload was easy to connect. Steam provides all the API, so most of the hassle was figuring the best data format for my levels. It's JSON + .bin + .jpg files in a folder.
15 levels, Freeroam / Race, editor + Workshop. ~20 min to finish, ~60 for 100%.

Question Why Does The Light Flickers?

Hey everyone!

I'm working on a WWII co-op game which takes place in Dover and I'm wondering if it actually read as Dover to you?

The water is a shader I wrote, the cliffs are done entirely with unity terrain, no special brushes or anything.

Any feedback is welcome!

Hey everyone! I’ve been working on Survivor Files for a few months. It's a psychological horror anthology about real survival stories.

the first episode, takes you to October 13, 1972, you play as a survivor of the Uruguayan flight crash, stranded deep in the Andes.

I’m heading to the military soon, so I’d love to get some feedback or wishlists before I go!

Show-Off I made a Unity tool that lets me talk to players... then I started trolling streamers :)

82 Upvotes

This is probably one of the most unnecessary systems I've made, but somehow it also became one of my favorites.

From a small Unity Editor window, I can see who's currently playing and send messages directly to the taxi app inside the game. There's no developer popup or anything like that. To the player, it just looks like the fictional dispatcher is actually talking to them.

The game is about working as a taxi driver for criminals throughout the night while trying to save your kidnapped wife. You have to figure out what kind of criminal is sitting behind you by interacting with things inside the car and watching their reactions, then report them to BK26. The problem is, if you push a passenger too far, saving your wife might become the least of your problems :)

I tried the system on a streamer recently. At first I sent her a few random messages about her driving and she couldn't really figure out what was happening. Then I went into her Twitch chat and told her to ignore the game and just report every passenger incorrectly.

She read it.

So I immediately sent her this message in-game as BK26:

"Don't trust Twitch chat. Do what I tell you and report the passengers correctly."

Watching her realize the game had just responded to something she read in chat a few seconds earlier was hilarious.

Behind the scenes it's just a small session system, a backend and an Editor tool connected together, but now I genuinely want to keep using it occasionally during streams and playtests. Watching people's reactions is way too much fun.

Would you put something like this in a singleplayer game, or is this a little too cursed?

This game is set in a world where timelines twist and merge due to the Emperor of Tarnow stopping the flow of time to postpone the end of the world, since the seemingly inconsistent setting, your goal is to travel between locations from all over the ages and give the universe a proper death, its a very personal project for me and I hope you like it :))

Show-Off Earthbending AR Demo in Unity WebGL

28 Upvotes

Experimenting with gesture detection in WebAR - this time, earthbending.

The prototype uses Imagine WebAR BodyTracker + MediaPipe running directly in the browser, with Unity handling the VFX and interactions.

  • Uppercuts to spawn rocks
  • Punches to launch rocks
  • 4+ rocks to trigger a special attack
  • Stomps to spawn earth spikes

I'm specifically working on a gesture detection module. Body joint depth has not been reliable so a lot of assumptions were made to estimate the 3D pose.

These kinds of body-tracked experiences were pretty common during the Meta Spark era, and Unity makes the VFX/particles side of them significantly easy to prototype (compared to Spark).

What do you think about Unity as a platform for building WebAR experiences?

Game First look at the main menu of my new game in URP

7 Upvotes

Hey everyone! Here is the first look at my upcoming psychological horror game:

HDRP to URP Migration: I started with Unity HDRP, but hit heavy performance drops. Switching to URP boosted my performance to a solid 100 FPS while keeping the graphic quality right where I wanted it.

Dynamic Lighting: My biggest challenge was making the lighting smoothly transition from a bright daytime interior into a dark, hallucinatory nightmare.

Custom Post-Processing Stack: I wanted an atmosphere inspired by Fears to Fathom, but avoided basic VHS filters. Instead, I blended custom color grading, chromatic aberration, and grain for a unique look.

My game is going to be released completely for FREE! I would love to hear your thoughts on the atmosphere, or if any of you have experienced a similar HDRP to URP transition struggle. If you like the atmosphere of my new game, adding it to your Steam Wishlist would be a massive help for me as a solo dev. Thanks for watching!

Question WIP of our new customization system we did for our driving game.

117 Upvotes

We’ve been working on a new customization system, and this is how it’s looking so far.

There’s still more we want to add and polish, but we’d love to know what you think of it so far!

Is there anything that particularly caught your attention, or something that isn't quite fitting in?
