Official Welcome to the Road to the Metaverse

What is Road to the Metaverse?


The road to the metaverse is paved in real-time 3D. But the challenges for creators are plenty – from capturing, transforming, visualizing and optimizing right-time data to creating, distributing and operating rich, interactive, immersive experiences that will engage stakeholders anywhere. Get ready to start your journey and learn the skills to thrive in the next era of computing.


The Road to the Metaverse is a collaborative initiative where Unity and the community come together to empower creators with the necessary skills to help build the Metaverse


The objective of this initiative is to replicate the dynamics of a XR development process, and let everyone take part in it according to their skill level, time, and will. It is a great resource for whomever wants to get practical experience but can't or doesn't know how to start a project of their own. To account for this, we will drive the main effort of the development and provide a platform for you to build upon.


On your side, you can make small or big contributions, collaborate with others, or just sit back and learn from exploring the projects and following the video materials we will produce. We believe that the biggest value of this project is to see it unfold, and that will provide valuable experience you wouldn't get by just following a tutorial.



How does it work?

As part of the initiative, we will produce a wealth of educational material, so even if you don't feel like contributing you will still be able to learn from the projects, explore them, and grow and get better in your craft, whether it's code, art, design, etc.


We run Live Workshops twice every month on our Road to Metaverse Landing page and on Unity's Learn Live where we will bring on camera members of the team (and occasionally, of the community!) to discuss the solutions used and take live questions; plus some one-off "overtime devlogs" which will explore different development aspects in a concise way.
