Push the limits on mobile
In 2023, we created Fantasy Kingdom in Unity 6, a stylized game environment made with Synty Studios assets to test the capabilities of Unity 6 for rendering, lighting, and performance with HDRP. In 2024, we brought an optimized version of this project to mobile devices using URP.
The demo leverages Unity's improved CPU and GPU graphics performance, Adaptive Probe Volumes, and VFX Graph. It is also enriched with lush foliage created with SpeedTree.
The project will be available in the Unity Asset Store on October 17, 2024, alongside the release of Unity 6.
Power richer, more detailed worlds
The mobile version of Fantasy Kingdom leverages the GPU Resident Drawer to minimize CPU overhead, achieving smoother, faster rendering of its complex world. GPU Occlusion Culling enhances performance by reducing per-frame overdraw. Spatial Temporal Post-Processing (STP) upscales lower-resolution frames without sacrificing quality.
Boost mobile performance
To push the limits of visual quality for mobile devices, we used the Render Graph default system to reduce memory bandwidth and battery consumption in the Universal Render Pipeline. Additionally, the latest integration with the Vulkan API offers improved GPU processing power, allowing for even better graphical performance and better features for mobile devices.
Create immersive lighting scenarios
We illuminated every object and corner of this world with Adaptive Probe Volumes (APV). APV's automatic light probe placement accelerates workflows and shortens iteration times for indirect diffuse lighting.
Bring environments to life
Rich and diverse vegetation created with SpeedTree 10 offers enhanced creative control when crafting both realistic and stylized environments. The scene was enhanced by adding special effects like butterflies, falling leaves, and water splashes using VFX Graph. Materials were created with Shader Graph.
Discover faster rendering, powerful lighting options, end-to-end multiplayer workflows, dynamic AI capabilities, and increased support for mobile web runtimes.
This demo project will be available in the Unity Asset Store on October 17, 2024, alongside the release of Unity 6.
The project and assets provided with it are intended for educational purposes only and will be listed under the Asset Store’s non-commercial EULA.
Fantasy Kingdom in Unity 6 URP is a mobile demo created by Unity’s Demo Team (Unity Originals) in collaboration with Incineration Productions, a game development studio specializing in collaborations and original IP creation.
The project leverages Synty Studios' acclaimed “POLYGON Fantasy Kingdom” asset pack. Synty Studios is a leading Unity Asset Store publisher, renowned for producing high-quality stylized art packs for Unity.
For commercial licensing and to experience the modular flexibility of the original Fantasy Kingdom asset pack head to the Synty Asset Store.
This project requires Unity 6 and has a recommended minimum hardware specification of an iPhone 13 or equivalent and a Samsung S22 or equivalent.
