Phaser 4 replaced the v3 renderer/FX/mask stack — v3 games need the migration guide. Phaser Editor is a separate commercial desktop product, not the OSS engine. The homepage can Cloudflare-gate a raw fetch; docs and GitHub are the source of truth.

A renderer, not a game engine. Bring physics, audio, scenes, netcode. If you wanted Phaser, this is the wrong layer.

Heavier than a 2D starter. docs.babylonjs.com (with an s) has returned 500; working docs host is doc.babylonjs.com. Editor pricing was not verified here, so it is omitted.

Do not conflate the MIT engine with the hosted Editor. Private cloud projects are the paid line (Personal 15 USD/month; Organization 50 USD per seat/month). Cancel and private projects lock until you resubscribe or make them public.

WebGPU to WebGL2 to Canvas AUTO and Canvas2D-shaped API — not Phaser scene/plugin ecosystem. W4 cut re-opened. Distinct from Phaser, KAPLAY, and PixiJS.

Loud: Compatibility/WebGL2 only for web; threaded export needs COOP/COEP — single-thread default since 4.3 for embeds. Not Phaser JS canvas. Distinct from Phaser.

Haxe+HashLink HTML5/WebGL — not Phaser/Godot/Defold/Cute Framework/melonJS/Bevy. Different language/runtime bet. Distinct from Phaser, Godot, Defold, Cute Framework, melonJS, and Bevy.

Vs Babylon/PlayCanvas: Ant Group TS WebGL + browser Editor + WeChat minigame lane — not Microsoft Babylon docs gravity, not PlayCanvas hosted-Editor freemium. Do not invent Editor cloud prices here.
