Player Accounts
The foundation of your live game
Successful live games engage players with features like friends lists, leaderboards, achievements, and more. Players need a persistent game identity to get the most value from these features. Player Accounts offers a player sign-in and identity solution that enables this personalized experience.
Seamless integration with other Unity products
Being part of Unity’s Authentication service means that using Player Accounts for your player-identity solution makes it easier to build your game features with the Unity Gaming Services portfolio. Leverage these integrations to save feature-development time.
Persistent experience across platforms and devices
If your audience plays your game across multiple devices, they will expect a smooth transition between platforms. Player Accounts ensures this on any device, from mobile to desktop, reducing friction and increasing player engagement.
Key benefits
Player Accounts is the out-of-the-box sign-in and identity solution for Unity Gaming Services (UGS) and Unity’s ecosystem. It is seamlessly integrated with Authentication and offers additional features such as organization-level player identifiers.
Your players can sign up and sign in to your games across a range of platforms, including iOS, Android, Windows, and MacOS.
By leveraging organization-level player identifiers, you can maintain persistent player profiles across all your games.
Your players have the flexibility to sign up or sign in to their accounts using their preferred method, such as email and password or social accounts like Google or Apple.
Players can start playing anonymously and sign up later without losing any progress, which eliminates a common barrier to play. And single sign-on (SSO) enables players to log in once and access all their Player Accounts-enabled games without re-entering credentials.
Once integrated, Player Accounts automatically updates to help your players stay in sync with new features and security improvements – no game changes required.
