Microsoft today announced that they have acquired SyntaxTree, the developers of the UnityVS plugin for Visual Studio. UnityVS enables Unity developers to take advantage of the productivity of Visual Studio to author, browse and debug the code for their Unity applications. Already today, dozens of the biggest names in game development rely on Visual Studio and the UnityVS plugin. With the acquisition, Microsoft will integrate Unity development inside Visual Studio and also making the plug-in available for free to developers from today.
In today’s mobile-first, cloud-first world, Visual Studio provides a great development environment for game developers targeting the breadth of mobile devices, and connecting to the rich services platforms in Azure. I am excited about our opportunity to continue to push game development with Visual Studio forward with the help of the SyntaxTree team.
