Unity tools help creators prototype worlds and design levels quickly.

Probuilder is a unique hybrid of 3D modeling and level-design tools that’s optimized for simple geometry but also enables detailed editing and UV unwrapping.

Paired with Polybrush, you can blend textures, colors, sculpt meshes, and scatter objects directly in the Editor. The Terrain Tools package features new sculpting brushes to bridge, clone, noise, terrace, and twist Terrain to shape incredible environments.

UI Toolkit is a collection of features, resources, and tools for developing user interfaces and Editor extensions. In the 2021 LTS and newer, it supports creating and debugging runtime UI for games and applications, with an intuitive workflow that helps artists and designers get started faster.

Visual scripting in Unity empowers creators to develop gameplay mechanics or interaction logic with an intuitive graph-based system instead of writing code.

Whether you’re an artist, designer, or programmer, visual scripting can help you accelerate your prototyping and iteration processes. You can also make custom nodes to streamline collaboration among your team, regardless of individuals’ programming knowledge.

As of Unity 2021 LTS and newer, visual scripting is available automatically within the Editor.

Cinemachine is a toolset for adding smart, codeless cameras that can understand subjects of interest and photography rules. This helps you shoot perfectly composed content that adapts dynamically in real-time.

These systems are flexible and extensible, allowing you to add custom controls that support advanced workflows. Light Anchors and Light Layers enable fine-tuned and accelerated shot-based lighting, and you can use our Virtual Camera companion app to shoot live with your iPhone or iPad.

Animation Rigging offers riggers and technical animators tools to create control rigs for animating characters directly in Unity. This package allows you to review animations in-context and make adjustments on the fly at runtime. In LTS, Animation Rigging is verified and includes bidirectional motion transfer to help you create realistic animations more quickly.

Use our Face Capture companion app to animate faces in real-time from an iPhone or a tablet live linked to the Editor.

Produce reactive shaders and effects in real-time using Unity’s VFX Graph and Shader Graph. VFX Graph lets you author in-engine with a powerful node-based interface and run large numbers of particles leveraging the GPU power. With Shader Graph, you can author shaders and see the results in real-time. Simply connect nodes visually in a graph network to see your creations and changes instantly.

Achieve both realistic and stylized graphics using Unity’s High Definition Render Pipeline (HDRP) and Universal Render Pipeline (URP). These flexible render pipelines provide you with a refined level of control for crafting sharply optimized visuals across a range of platforms, from mobile to desktop and high-end consoles

HDRP is a physically based renderer that uses light units to target PC and consoles and desktop VR. It provides off-the-shelf advanced materials, lights, clouds, volumetrics, real-time ray tracing, and artist controls to achieve high-definition visuals. Use HDRP for AAA-quality games, product configurators, architectural applications, film, and other projects that require high-fidelity graphics.

URP provides optimized graphics performance on a broad range of platforms, including VR. URP offers artist-friendly workflows to help you create optimized graphics across a range of platforms, from mobile to high-end consoles and PCs.

From Global Illumination (GI) to high-quality shadows, Unity offers techniques that simulate the intricate behavior of light and materials in your 3D worlds. Enjoy the flexibility of real-time or precomputed (baked) lighting, or even combine both to achieve optimal performance and visual quality across all platforms.
