Unity, a popular gaming engine development company, has recently announced the addition of blockchain-based integration options to its platform. With over 3.9 billion users playing games built on Unity every month in 2021, this move extends the company's product offering. Over 50% of all platforms and 70% of the top 1,000 mobile games use Unity's technology. 

Game mechanics that enable players to gain in-game resources that they can sell or trade are known as decentralization in gaming. This is a process in which players create, earn, or purchase resources that they can use in their games. 

By integrating decentralized gaming technology, developers can take advantage of digital identity, tokens, NFTs, and other technologies with Unity integration. This integration includes 13 different software development kits for integrating blockchain services, including Aikon Ore ID, Algorand, Dapper Labs, Immutable X, Altura, Aptos Labs, Infura, Metamask, Nefta, Pocketful of Quarters, Solana, Tezos, and Truffle. 

These solutions offer various benefits to game developers, from token management wallets to ease the creation of metaverses and the management of digital identities in virtual worlds. This type of technology can be found in games like Decentraland and The Sandbox, both of which were developed with Unity.

John Riccitiello, CEO of Unity, is optimistic about the adoption of these technologies in the near future. He previously stated that his vision for the internet is to transform it into a series of interconnected metaverse sites by 2030. This move is crucial to integrating these technologies into existing games since over 50% of real-time experiences are developed using Unity tools. 

Unity's latest expansion into blockchain-based integration options for its platform will undoubtedly have a significant impact on the gaming industry. Developers now have the opportunity to take advantage of new technologies that offer more exciting and immersive gaming experiences for players.
