Unity Plugin - Quickstart
Edgegap fully managed game servers and automated orchestration leverage the world’s largest distributed edge network to deploy game servers nearest to your players.
This allows your multiplayer to reduce latency by up to 58% and delivers up to 78% “real-time” latency (sub-50 ms) vs. traditional public cloud1 for your game and players.
For devs, integration is refreshingly easy, low code, and takes minutes thanks to our fully compatible Unity plugin.
What to Expect
Create an account on Edgegap.com – Its easy & free.
How to install & launch the plugin:
Add the plugin directly from the Unity Asset Store, or from our GitHub.
From the Unity's Editor, import the plugin through the Package Manager. Found under "Windows / Package Manager", then selecting "My Assets".
