Facebook has announced that it will be launching its own PC gaming platform and will be working closely with Unity developers.
The company has partnered with Unity to integrate Facebook into its game development platform, allowing game developers to more easily publish games to Facebook.
Facebook’s new PC gaming platform will focus on web game development, but its Unity integration may also result in standalone titles being published to the platform.
Unity is a game development engine that is very popular among independent game developers due to its versatility and cheap license.
A large number of modern games are built using the Unity engine, and Facebook’s integration of its platform into the toolset means that developers will easily be able to port their titles to the company’s storefront.
This also means that Oculus Rift games built in Unity could be published to Facebook’s PC gaming platform with very little effort.
