Unity Engine

Hi, As a lot of you know, apk size is very important and Google play develop a new system to distribute our games, The android app bundle

as stated in that video from Google I/O:

I am wondering, will Unity integrate this system built-in in Unity or we will need to export the android project and manage it from android studio?

In the case that it will be integrated, Will it be integrate into the LTS release of 2017? Or will we need to update our engine version?

Thanks in advance

Just noticed that it’s on their roadmap, although just in the ‘Development’ part, so not scheduled for a specific Unity release so far.

It looks like this is now supported in Unity 2018.3 and it looks like it has been backported into 2017.4.17:

Additionally, I was wondering whether there was support for dynamic feature modules? In particular, will we be able to split up our Unity code into dynamic feature modules?
It was mentioned briefly in Unity Blog but I haven’t been able to find any Unity specific documentation about this. The Android developer documentation mentions you need to join a beta feature program.
