SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct 21, 2025--

Unity (NYSE: U), the leading platform to create and grow games and interactive experiences, today announced the general availability of Android XR support in Unity 6 — making it easy for developers to reach new audiences and platforms with their games and apps.

Google Maps XR, built with Unity, brings the Immersive View feature to Android XR, allowing users to explore locations in detailed 3D environments.

“By collaborating closely with Google and Samsung, we integrated Android XR tools into Unity 6 early and verified them with developers in real production environments ahead of the launch,” said Alex Blum, COO at Unity. “We’re not just optimizing for one headset — we’re building for an open, scalable Android XR ecosystem where developers can reach new markets with less lift and more confidence.”

“Unity’s support of Android XR made it really easy for us to get started,” said Andrew Eiche, CEO of Owlchemy Labs. “We were able to bring some of our biggest games to Android XR in about a week, which helped us reach more players without a ton of extra work. That time savings also let us build something completely new with Inside [JOB].”

Unity’s day-one Android XR support opens the door for teams across gaming, education, entertainment, and enterprise industries to quickly build new games and apps or quickly port existing Unity ones to the Android XR ecosystem. Several launch-day experiences built with Unity are now available for Galaxy XR, including:

  • Google Maps XR (by Google): This new version of Google Maps brings the Immersive View feature to Android XR, allowing users to explore locations in detailed 3D environments. More information about how Google leveraged Unity to create Google Maps XR is available here.
  • NFL Pro Era (by StatusPRO Inc): The first licensed NFL virtual reality simulation game is now available on Android XR, alongside existing versions for Meta Quest, PlayStation VR, and Windows.
  • Inside [JOB] (by Owlchemy Labs): This new mixed-reality experience introduces users to Android XR interactions. Owlchemy also used Unity to bring its popular titles Vacation Simulator, Job Simulator, and Dimensional Doubleshift to Android XR.

Unity’s Android XR support is available in Unity 6 and later versions, and is currently open to all developers.
