Company Google prepares the release of a new version a Google Play Game Services for developers of applications dedicated to the platform Android, giving them the possibility to interconnect iDevices and terminals Android for multiplayer games. Practically all the games that will have this framework implemented will allow the owners of terminals running on both platforms to challenge themselves to participate in multiplayer game sessions on their own devices.
To further help with cross platform game development, we're updating our Play Games Unity Plugin to support cross-platform multiplayer services, and introducing an early Play Games C++ SDK to support achievements and leaderboards... In addition, we're launching enhanced Play Games statistics on the Google Play Developer Console, providing easy game analytics for Play Games adopters.
