iI have a project that already uses asset bundles. iI download assets in start ofwhen the game starts and show them to users anytimethe user when needed.

iI see that unityUnity provides addressables as new solution for asset management. asAs its new  (not very new as its accessible from 2018.2, but official docs dont say a lot) there is not so much about it inon the web.
