Extended Reality (XR) Engines for Developing Gamified Apps and Serious Games: A Scoping Review
Extended Reality (XR) is an emerging technology that enables enhanced interaction between the real world and virtual environments. In this study, we conduct a scoping review of XR engines for developing gamified apps and serious games. Our study revolves around four aspects: (1) existing XR game engines, (2) their primary features, (3) supported serious game attributes, and (4) supported learning activities. We used the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) model to conduct the scoping review, which included 40 primary studies published between 2019 and 2023. Our findings help us understand how current XR engines support the development of XR-enriched serious games and gamified apps for specific learning activities. Additionally, based on our findings, we suggest a set of pre-established game attributes that could be commonly supported by all XR game engines across the different game categories proposed by Lameras. Hence, this scoping review can help developers (1) select important game attributes for their new games and (2) choose the game engine that provides the most support to these attributes.

期刊介绍:
Future Internet is a scholarly open access journal which provides an advanced forum for science and research concerned with evolution of Internet technologies and related smart systems for “Net-Living” development. The general reference subject is therefore the evolution towards the future internet ecosystem, which is feeding a continuous, intensive, artificial transformation of the lived environment, for a widespread and significant improvement of well-being in all spheres of human life (private, public, professional). Included topics are: • advanced communications network infrastructures • evolution of internet basic services • internet of things • netted peripheral sensors • industrial internet • centralized and distributed data centers • embedded computing • cloud computing • software defined network functions and network virtualization • cloud-let and fog-computing • big data, open data and analytical tools • cyber-physical systems • network and distributed operating systems • web services • semantic structures and related software tools • artificial and augmented intelligence • augmented reality • system interoperability and flexible service composition • smart mission-critical system architectures • smart terminals and applications • pro-sumer tools for application design and development • cyber security compliance • privacy compliance • reliability compliance • dependability compliance • accountability compliance • trust compliance • technical quality of basic services.
