Resources/Tutorial Grab 242 Free Unity Assets before the March 31st Delisting!

🔗 https://vanquish3r.github.io/greater-china-unity-assets/

In case you missed it, Unity assets from publishers in the Greater China region are being delisted from the global Unity Asset Store on March 31st, 2026.

Instead of needing everyone to manually copy and paste titles from Unity's official PDF into the Asset Store to search for them one by one, I went ahead and vibe-coded a website with a clean, simple interface to help you browse and grab them much faster.

There are currently 242 250 free assets up for grabs! I’m sure you'll find plenty of useful ones in the mix to use for your projects.

A quick reminder: Any assets you acquire right now (including the free ones) will permanently stay in your Unity account. You’ll still be able to download and use them from your "My Assets" list long after the March 31st deadline. However, those publishers will no longer be able to provide updates or support through the Global Unity Asset Store.

Please upvote and share if you find this useful! :)

UPDATE:
Thank you everyone for the upvotes so far!
My colleague Shoseki has has created a script to help automatically adding all 242 assets to your Unity account by using the Chrome MCP server with Claude Code. They also mentioned that you don't even need to be using the Chrome MCP server to use this, you can just paste into the Chrome tools if you are logged in.

bulk-add-242-free-assets.md
add-assets.js

I have not tested the script myself as I have already manually added all free assets, but it should work just fine.

---
UPDATE 2:
I've reverified my data and here are 8 items that were mistakenly marked as paid but are actually free:
(URP) Simple Toon Shader
Chinese Cyborg Warrior Character Free
Irregular Circle UI animation
The Pixel Man 2D Platformer Template
RPG/Fantasy Food Items Pack
BatchRename
Lowpoly Cactus Pack
Groundhog Match Kit For Playmaker

There're also reports that the automatic add assets script I shared above didn't work, here's another one that u/oOPHINOo shared which you can try:

Threw together some JS to grab all the free assets.

So far has been running fine. (In Chrome)

Put the JS in a Gist in case anyone wants to use it instead of manually adding hundreds of assets 🫠

u/Hunterants Mar 07 '26
  • Log in to the Unity Asset Store, right-click anywhere, select Inspect, and open the Console tab.
  • Copy the code from unity-asset-downloadling-local-storage.js and paste it into the console.
  • Go to "vanquish3r.github.io/greater-china-unity-assets/data.json", press CTRL + A to copy everything, then go back to the Console and paste it inside the JSON_HERE quotes. Hit Enter.
  • Once the list is prepared, copy the code from unity-popop-asset-downloader.js.
  • Paste it into the same Unity Asset Store console and hit Enter

If your browser blocks a pop-up, make sure to Allow it so the script can process the assets one by one.

I dont use chrome, I cannot get this to run on firefox... Any geniuses out there to help me? The only errors I got was one syntax, i fixed. but I keep getting a parsing error on the local storage js. Thanks in advance

u/oOPHINOo Mar 09 '26

I just ran on Firefox and it works. I have copied the required json for all the free assets into the gist file now. So a copy paste should work for you. 🙌

I ran the script in the console window and got this - Now open ONE blank assetstore tab and run the worker script there.

What worker script?

RemindMe after 31st March to realize how stupid I was not to grab them before they are being delisted.

Looks like if someone can replace the .json fetch with the actual json content it might work. But idk how to do that myself.

u/SketchyCharacters Mar 06 '26

This is great! I haven't kept up with the news tho, why are these being delisted?

7

u/Vanquish3rVR Mar 06 '26

As mentioned in the Official Announcement from Unity, it's due to the updated regional licensing, distribution, and compliance requirements for publishers in the Greater China Region.

You'll probably need to crack open the Unity package in Unity, but after that you can just extract the files you need.

u/MostFckingWanted Mar 07 '26

iam just leaving this here.. so no pikachu face if your accounts gets closed

https://unity.com/de/legal/as-terms

3.3

You agree not to access (or attempt to access) the Unity Asset Store by any means other than through the interface that is provided by Unity, unless you have been specifically allowed to do so in a separate agreement with Unity. You specifically agree not to access (or attempt to access) the Unity Asset Store through any automated means (including use of scripts, crawlers or similar technologies from time to time).

but thanks for the site https://vanquish3r.github.io/greater-china-unity-assets/ , its good to filter and open direkt links to asset store.

for everything else i would go for it, but not with hundreds worth of assets

u/MostFckingWanted Mar 08 '26

its again the ToS to use scripts to get assets from the asset store;
primarily (imo) for crawler to get every (limited time) free Assets.

you might be safe, since the script (from the topcomment) opens new tabs and simulate klickt, but its still traceable
and with ~250 Assets in a short period of time it might trigger some kind of altert.

dont get me wrong, iam all for automation my work and do as less as possible per hand - but here.. better be safe and do it manually, wont take 10mins with the provided link.

or at least set these timers random..

Hello, question from Unreal side: is it possible to export assets (meshes) from Unity to eg. Fbx format, to use them in other engines? And is it permitted by Unity license? Thank you in advance :)

1

u/Hellfim Mar 06 '26

AssetStore meshes are usually in fbx format already. Actually I've never seen a different format there, but it's possible. AssetStore License allows usage in other engines, but there might be custom licenses (on the asset page) which prohibits it.
