Made with Unity: 2022 in review

As we reflect on the past year, we can’t help but be proud of all that the Unity community accomplished. From award-winning masterpieces and cult hits to the pure, unadulterated joy that Trombone Champ has brought to all of our lives. Case in point…

Before we move into a new year, full of new possibilities, let’s take a moment to celebrate some of your biggest achievements from the past 12 months. Thank you for being part of our story; here’s to an even better 2023!

To the best of our abilities, here’s a non-exhaustive list of Made with Unity games that you released in 2022, either into early access or full release. There have been so many great titles this year, so we’ve categorized them by genre to make this list a bit more digestible and hopefully inspire some of your future projects – though, of course, some titles defy easy genre categorization (*cough* Cult of the Lamb *cough*).

See any on the list that have already become favorites or know of any that we missed? Tell us about it in the forums.
