Because Metaplay is a large platform with many features, we recommend adopting it incrementally. Depending on where you are in your game's development, you should prioritize different features of the SDK to get the most value out of Metaplay.

To keep things simple, we have written guides from two perspectives:

1. A new game - Your game is still in early development and you want to leverage Metaplay to build your game faster and with solid foundations.
2. An existing game - You have and existing game (possibly with live players) and want to adopt Metaplay's features incrementally and with minimal distraction to your existing code.

Pick the one that resonates with you the most and follow the guide to get started.
