The upcoming BlackBerry 10 operating system will be heavily mobile game focused, as BlackBerry looks to compete with Apple, Google and Microsoft -- and today's addition of Unity support is another step in the right direction for the platform.
A deployment add-on for the Unity engine will be available for BlackBerry 10 smartphones and for the BlackBerry PlayBook tablet sometime this summer, with a free beta launching to a limited number of qualified Unity developers this spring.
BlackBerry is also planning to provide the Unity development communities with BlackBerry 10 smartphones, for testing purposes.
Developer meet-ups will also be held at events in Europe and North America over the coming months, where interested studios can look to receive a free device for BlackBerry Unity development.
This would be an exciting feature to the new Blackberry 10. From looking at the specs of the phone: 720p resoulution, 768 x 1280 (PPI 356), and with Dual Core 1.5GHz (2GB Ram as well) untiy would look gorgous on the new Blackberry Z10. I don't know about the Blackberry Q10 because I can't really see how the qwerty pad would work with the games made through unity and also supported through unity.
