Unity Invites Developers to Its 2026 Game Jam
Unity has announced its 2026 official Game Jam, a “celebration of game development,” inviting aspiring and seasoned developers to create their projects.
The online event will be held from November 5 to November 13. Developers will have a full seven days to create a game around a specific theme, which will be announced at the kickoff livestream, and a few extra days to submit the project via the itch.io platform. During the jam, developers are invited to join the Unity Discord.
The kickoff livestream will be hosted on Thursday, November 5, at 12 PM EST / 9:00 AM PST / 5:00 PM GMT / 17:00 UTC, and the results will be announced in a livestream on December 10.
Developers can work solo or in teams of up to five people. Teams can be formed before the jam starts, and team-finding channels will open on Discord ahead of the kickoff. Each submission should include a playable build, a short description, the controls, credits for all assets, and a list of team members.
