> Player) contain settings that determine how Unity builds and displays your final application. You can use the PlayerSettings API to control most of the settings available in this window.
Note
You can access Player settings from the Build Profiles window (menu: File > Build Profiles).

General settings

The Player settings differ between the platform modules that you've installed. Each platform has its own Player settings which you'll need to set for each version of your application you want to build. To navigate between them, click on the tabs with the platform operating system icon on.

Player settings window

There are some general settings that all platforms share by default, unless you use build profiles.
Note
With build profiles, you can customize the Player settings per build profile to set different values for each platform. For more information, refer to Customize settings with build profiles.

Platform-specific settings

The platform-specific settings are divided into the following sections:

  • Resolution and Presentation: settings for screen resolution and other presentation details such as whether the game should default to fullscreen mode.
  • Splash Image: the image shown while the game is launching. This section also includes common settings for creating a Splash Screen. For more information, refer to the Splash Image documentation.
  • Other Settings: any remaining settings specific to the platform.
  • Publishing Settings: details of how the built application is prepared for delivery from the app store or host webpage.
  • XR Settings: settings specific to Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, and Mixed Reality applications.
