Sustainable Games Alliance drives game engine energy efficiency with new power-saving plugins
The Sustainable Games Alliance (SGA) has released three new power-saving plugins for Unreal Engine, Unity, and Godot to improve energy efficiency in game development. These plugins dynamically reduce frame rates and rendering resolution during player idle times, potentially extending battery life on handheld devices by up to 15% and reducing carbon emissions. The initiative aims to foster industry-wide collaboration on sustainability.
