Phaser Has Its Own Visual Editor

And we've just released the brand new version 5. Watch the launch trailer below to see what's in store.

A major release

What's New in v5

Phaser Editor v5 brings full Phaser 4 support, a completely new AI integration system, enterprise-grade workflow features, and a long list of improvements to the Scene Editor. Whether you're building your first game or managing a large production, there's something meaningful here for you.

Built from the ground up

A Completely New Renderer

Phaser 4 contains our brand new renderer — faster, more reliable, more efficient, and built to handle whatever you throw at it. It's your batteries-included ally to get things moving at super-speed.

New Renderer
Raw GPU Power

Over a Million Sprites

Render over a million animated sprites in a single draw call — up to 100 times faster than before, with all the heavy lifting handled directly by the GPU.

Massive tilemaps? No problem. Seamless rendering, perfect filtering, and blazing performance no matter how big your world gets.

GPU Performance
Visual Effects

A Unified Filter System

Bloom, glow, shadow, blur, image-based lighting, color grading, chroma key, wipe transitions, barrel distortion and much more — all compatible with each other, all working on any game object or camera, in real time.

Lighting is now a single line of code. Sprites can cast self-shadows from their own texture. And new GPU-driven game objects like Gradient and Noise bring stunning visuals without touching your frame budget.

Filters and Lighting

Framework Friendly

Need to integrate a game into a site created with a modern framework such as React, Vue, NextJS, or Svelte? Phaser has got you covered.

We've more integration templates available than any other game framework, and new ones are being added frequently.

Batteries Included

Everything You Need

Physics, tweens, cameras, input, atlases, particles, dynamic textures, custom shaders — everything you need to build a great game is already here, with an API that has your back.

Batteries Included
Smooth Upgrade Path

Already Using Phaser 3?

We overhauled the internals, but kept the public-facing API almost identical — and every change is covered in our migration guide. Or use our AI skills to get your agent to help you. Most games will just work.

Migration Guide

We have templates available for all of the following:
(And most are available in both JavaScript and TypeScript versions)

Are you more of a CLI fiend?

Prefer to reach for the terminal rather than your mouse? Us too!

That's why we built the create-phaser-game CLI app. Simply invoke the command and walk through our interactive installer.

npm create @phaserjs/game@latest
npx @phaserjs/create-game@latest
yarn create @phaserjs/game
pnpm create @phaserjs/game@latest
bun create @phaserjs/game@latest
AI-Powered Development

Fully AI-Ready

Vibe coder? Or using AI to augment your skills? Phaser 4 is fully AI-ready. Every frontier model knows the Phaser API deeply, so we were careful to ensure this knowledge carried over.

And we've a growing set of skills files to feed to your AI agents. Install Phaser into your project and let Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, Open Claw and others use them to super-charge your development.
