This holiday season, we want to give you a chance to discover, play, and celebrate the incredible creativity of the developers who built with Niantic Studio in 2024.  Over the past six months, thousands of new developers joined the platform, creating a wide range of web games and real-world experiences. To make it easier to explore and enjoy these creations, we’re introducing a new playground: nianticarcade.com 

This curated collection showcases some of the most exciting web games and experiences created since Niantic Studio launched in June. From side-scrolling adventures to endless runners to splat-based experiences, these projects demonstrate the versatility and innovation made possible with Niantic Studio. These experiences come across the Niantic 8th Wall developer community, from the Studio developer challenges, the Developer Accelerator Fund, and even a few creations from the Niantic team. 

For the initial release, our team handpicked every experience on the page. In 2025, we hope this becomes a space where developers can publish their projects for discovery by players and other creators. Have a project you’d like to see featured? Fill out this form, we’ll be reviewing new submissions in the new year.

As we close out 2024, we want to thank the incredible developer community for shaping Niantic Studio during its public beta. Your work and feedback are vital in helping Niantic Studio become the best visual interface and web gaming engine for creating real-world WebXR web games and experiences. Celebrate how far we’ve come together, and get inspired for what’s next, by heading to nianticarcade.com to start playing today.
