Update Dec. 4 2012: The unsupported 64-bit Windows web player is not currently in working state in Unity 4.0.

While we have been developing Unity 3.4, we have ported the Unity runtime to the x86_64 architecture on Windows. You may have noticed that the Unity 3.4 editor allows "Windows 64-bit" as a new build option in the Standalone build. We have also ported the Unity Web Player to Windows 64-bit. This allows you to play Unity content in Microsoft Internet Explorer 64-bit or in 64-bit builds of Mozilla Firefox. Any Unity web content built with Unity 3.x should play in the 64-bit plugin. Content built with Unity 2.x will not work, as the 2.x runtime has not been ported to x86_64!

Since 64-bit browsers are not yet very widespread on Windows, the 64-bit web plugin has received limited testing coverage during our 3.4 beta. For that reason, we have decided to make this plugin available on an experimental basis for anyone who wishes to test or run Unity content in a 64-bit Windows browser. It is not yet available on our our main Web Player download page and the default JavaScript we supply for embedding Unity content will not link to it, so you have to manually download the installer. If 64-bit browsers become more common on Windows in the future, we will change this and release it as a fully supported product.

Without further ado, here it is!

Even though this is an unsupported product, please use the bug reporter which comes with Unity to report any issues you might have with the plugin!
