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.

Keep up with players across multiple devices

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

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
Integrated with UGS and the Unity Editor

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.

Cross-platform and cross-device

Your players can sign up and sign in to your games across a range of platforms, including iOS, Android, Windows, and MacOS.

Cross-game

By leveraging organization-level player identifiers, you can maintain persistent player profiles across all your games.

Streamlined user sign-up and sign-in journey

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.

Frictionless sign-in experience

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.

Integrate once and forget it

Once integrated, Player Accounts automatically updates to help your players stay in sync with new features and security improvements – no game changes required.
