Unity Announces Support for Xbox One X

Unity has just announced in a recent blog post that the game engine will now be offering support for development on the upcoming Xbox One X. With the Xbox One X's demanding 4K HDR output, scaling projects with Unity's support is "as easy as changing some quality settings".

The process of developing for Xbox One X is the same as developing for the existing Xbox One family. Unity for Xbox One is available to anyone with an Xbox One development kit.

Developers will be able to create projects that can be deployed seamlessly to any member of the Xbox One family: Xbox One, Xbox One S and Xbox One X.

This news comes as no surprise for the popular game engine, whose infrastructure is host to powerhouse games such as Hearthstone, Pokemon GO, and Tencent's new runaway hit Strike of Kings. Having raised a hefty $400 million earlier this year, Unity is quick to capitalize on the potential offerings that new Xbox One X developments will bring. Many will be excited to see what projects will be coming in the near future, and whether or not cross-platform play will become the norm with games running on Unity Engine.
