Partner Spotlight: Amazon Web Services

10 May 2022

Today we would like to spotlight our partner Amazon Web Services!

AWS announced two new services so game developers can focus on doing what they do best – creating great games!

Amazon GameSparks for Unity is now in Public Preview! Build game backends without worrying about infrastructure. Add the SDK to your game client and create custom game logic with Cloud Code; or use and extend pre-built backend game features such as authentication, player messaging, and player data.

AWS GameKit – Building in Unreal? Install the AWS GameKit plug-in to configure and deploy AWS resources to support each cloud-based game feature directly from the engine. Custom API libraries and built-in samples make it easy to incorporate feature functionality into front-end game code to communicate with backend services.

Not sure where to start? Developers can sign up for support packages which include consulting hours and AWS Promotional Credits* at AWS for Games Landing Zone.
