Introduction
What Is Web3S
Web3S is an Unreal Engine plugin that provides native integration with Blockchain networks and IPFS. It enables direct interaction with smart contracts, transactions and NFT management. Web3S also supports IPFS file operations such as uploading, downloading, and streaming decentralized assets, all without requiring external dependencies.
Blockchain for Games
Blockchain enables true digital ownership in games. With Web3S, you get:
- Zero downtime - Once the smart contract is deployed on the blockchain, the network as a whole will always be able to serve clients looking to interact with the contract.
- Privacy - You don't need to provide real-world identity
- Resistance to censorship - No single entity on the network can block users from submitting transactions, reading data from the blockchain or writing to it.
- Complete data integrity - Data stored on the blockchain is immutable and indisputable, thanks to cryptographic primitives. Malicious actors cannot forge transactions or other data that has already been made public.
IPFS for Decentralized Storage
IPFS is a peer-to-peer decentralized storage network. that keeps your game’s assets available and secure. With Web3S, you can:
- Upload game assets – Store models, textures, and configurations on a distributed network.
- Fetch content dynamically – Load assets using IPFS content identifiers (CIDs).
- Ensure permanence – Files persist across nodes, eliminating dead links.
Why Use Web3S?
We built Web3S to give game developers the tools for decentralized gaming:
- True Ownership – Players control their items and private keys.
- Reliable Availability – Content stays accessible through IPFS network and guarantees asset integrity.
- Transparent Rules – Blockchain through Smart contracts enforce fair and verifiable logic.
- Seamless Integration – Works natively in Unreal Engine no third-party services required.
What You Can Build
- NFT Games – Players own, trade, and use verifiable in-game items.
- Persistent Worlds – Store game data on IPFS network for player-run ecosystems.
- Play-to-Earn Systems – Reward players with tokens or NFTs for achievements.
- User-Generated Content – Let players create and share content via IPFS.
