SAN FRANCISCO, CA - November 1, 2010 - Unity Technologies, provider of the Unity development platform for highly interactive 3D content on the web, iPhone®, iPad™, PC, Mac®, Android™, Wii™, Xbox 360® and PlayStation®3, today announced that last month its registered user base increased from 13,000 to 250,000 year-over-year while installs of the free Unity Web Player surpassed 35 million. The company hit these milestones weeks after releasing Unity 3, its biggest and best release that has dozens of major new features, 100+ additional enhancements and up to 10x performance improvements available at http://unity3d.com/unity.
"This has been a banner year, and the blessings simply won't end," said David Helgason, CEO of Unity Technologies. "We bet on democratization of technology and then upped the ante with a truly free license. Our growth proves how valuable enabling technologies are and how relevant 3D is to gaming as well as marketing, training, visualization and simulation."
Earlier this year, Unity Technologies celebrated Unity's fifth anniversary, commemorating five years of steadfast leadership and relentless innovation in enabling and empowering rich 3D games for web, mobile, console and anywhere else where games and immersive experiences are called for (http://unity3d.com/company/news/unity-5year-press.html). The company also received a series of awards and accolades including The Wall Street Journal 2010 Technology Innovation Award.
Unity is the #1 game development platform on the market and in education, by far the leading game technology on the iPhone and iPad and the fastest growing game development platform in terms of developer mindshare. At the same time, tens of thousands of developers are leveraging Unity's innovations to create innovations of their own -- new unique control interfaces, real-time sports broadcasting, new ways of interacting with social networks, new ways to advertise products, augmented reality (AR) games, integrated devices and many more.
