Bringing the complete web3 gaming stack to Unreal Engine. Get started.
We're excited to bring our best-in-class web3 gaming stack to Unreal Engine — empowering game developers with:
The complete web3 wallet stack: Onboard anyone to your game — with a powerful Connect Wallet component, all popular web3 wallets, web2 login flows (email, Google, social accounts), & flexible hooks.
Account abstraction, built-in: Native ERC-4337 integration for signless, gasless gameplay & powerful smart accounts for users.
Production-grade infrastructure: RPCs, storage, & backend wallet management out of the box — so you can scale your game to millions.
Ready-to-ship contracts & components: Pre-built smart contracts & UI components for every web3 feature, so you can focus on the game.
Fiat & crypto payments: NFT checkouts for every payment method.
Everything you need to build great games on any EVM chain, L2, or subnet.
Get started with our Unreal Engine template, read the docs, and build immersive onchain games on Unreal Engine (& any platform):
Case Study: Onchain Games with Seamless Onboarding ✨
Tarochi is a MMORPG where players can collect, trade, & battle w/ monsters. Built by Paima Studios, the game is unique in various ways:
→ Every interaction is onchain (no centralized server required to run)
→ Anyone can play without previously having a wallet (with signless UX)
In 1 month since launch, the game has grown to 2,500+ players — with a total of 17k+ battles & 100k+ onchain transactions!
Part of Tarochi’s success can be attributed to its accessibility to all players — delivering a smooth UX with no transaction popups or signature requests.
Its seamless onboarding flow enables users to “Continue as guest” without connecting a wallet:
Player hits “Click to login” to start playing
Tarochi auto-generates a local wallet for them (signless & gasless)
Player can "Save their progress" later by connecting a wallet
The game is completely signless, gasless, and free to play… while being onchain. Watch the full gameplay & learn more about how they built it:
