What’s new? The Polkadot team announced blockchain integration with the Unity game engine, which powers about 60% of mobile games, including Pokémon Go and Call of Duty Mobile. As part of the partnership, Polkadot will join the Unity Verified Solutions (VS) program, which acts as a gateway between centralized networks and the Unity Asset Store developer marketplace, which has an audience of more than 1,5 million.

What else is known? Unity VS delivers third-party solutions such as software development kits (SDKs), plugins, editors, and cloud services to the developer marketplace. The collaboration will expand Polkadot’s presence in the Web 3.0 games segment.

Previously, experts at Fortune Business Insights predicted the blockchain gaming market to grow to $614.9 billion by 2030.

In February, Unity added support for SDKs from Algorand, Aptos, Solana, Tezos, and Flow networks, as well as the Immutable X platform and decentralized crypto wallet MetaMask.

Last month, blockchain game developer Animoca Brands purchased native tokens from the TON network, becoming its largest validator. Animoca will also support the TON Play project to create TON-based gaming apps and launch them in the Telegram messenger.
