“To make it easy to get started, we’ve brought the richness of Google Maps to the Unity game engine.”

Superb!

Any official statements?

They would have probably blogged about it there would be enough to say. Now it just seems they retweeted or shared the links but not much more.

The access and pricing seems to be aimed more to high profile companies and not average Unity users.

I think Google are due to demo the tech at GDC next week, so I doubt we’ll know more until then.  
It could be great, but I have similar reservations to Ostwind at the moment.

If they’re not showing you the price, that means they think you can’t afford it. 😄

AFAIK it’s currently case by case pricing starting from zero as it’s for select partners only.

Thanks man for the information. Is there any alternatives to use 2d maps in Unity? Not the static maps.
