Installing Unity

In this page, we are going to guide you through the Unity installation process, please make sure to follow all the instructions.

Before we begin, there are a few of things you need to be aware of:

  1. The basic Unity package will require at least 1 GB of space in your Hard Drive, please make sure you have enough free space before running the installation.

  2. In order to use Unity, you will need a free personal license that you can get by creating a Unity account.

  3. In order to install Unity, you will actually need to install two pieces of software: the Unity Hub and the Unity software.

They basically work together, on one hand, the Unity Hub manages your Unity projects, license and Unity versions, it even provides access to tutorials. On the other hand, Unity is the piece of software you actually use to create stuff.

  1. Download and install the Unity Hub.
    Before clicking on the link below, please make sure that once you get to the download page, you click on the button that says "Download Unity Hub" as shown in the picture below.
