Mobile game development made simple

From RPGs to Match-3s, 75% of top-grossing mobile games feature 2D visuals. Unity’s industry leading 2D toolset helps you create eye-catching graphics and bring them to life on different mobile devices, with tools for 2D animation, 2D physics, 2D lights, and much more. 

Looking to bring high-fidelity visuals to your mobile audience? Challenge expectations of mobile game graphics by harnessing the power of the Universal Render Pipeline (URP). This scriptable render pipeline allows you to deliver high-quality visuals quickly and easily, without sacrificing quality or performance.

Making sure your game is optimized for mobile can be a challenge. Art assets must be efficient, and code has to run well on potentially thousands of target platforms to preserve battery life and keep players playing. You also have to consider everything from multiple screen form factors and resolutions to device memory and CPU or GPU variability. There’s a lot to think about, and you need to get it right to prevent player churn.

Minimize performance issues easily with Unity’s suite of profiling tools, including the Memory Analyzer and Profile Analyzer, Input system, Device Simulator, and URP.

Success on mobile means being where your players are. To achieve that, you need to be able to rapidly create quality experiences for players across a huge variety of mobile devices. Unity’s extensive platform support means you can build your mobile game once and reach billions of players. Our package ecosystem makes it easy to customize the engine to your specific needs, and a range of render pipelines are available to help you take on the challenge of developing games that run well on many different platforms, including Android, iOS, and more

Mobile game development is hard work, and you want to make sure it pays off. Mobile app stores and top games charts are already overflowing, with many new games being released each day. How will you stand out?

Unity Ads is a versatile tool that can help you to drive players to your game right from launch. With a growing player base, you can then focus on creating a monetization system that’s fair to your audience and fits the creative vision of your game, using Unity Ads, Unity In-App-Purchases, or Unity Economy.

Gone are the days when game development stops at launch. Mobile platforms have been leading the evolution of games running as services, which requires game developers and studios to think about their LiveOps strategy. 

Unity offers many services to handle the complexities of LiveOps for mobile games. Multiplayer services help host and manage multiplayer games at any scale, backend tools help manage the fine details of player data and authentication, and specialized analytics tools help to understand your players’ behavior to improve your game and increase retention.
