Technical requirements

Before starting with Unity, we have to make sure that our computer is suited to it. Please check the following requirements for developing or running a Unity game.

Don't worry, Unity runs on macOS and Windows, so we will have no trouble if you want to use your preferred operating system:

• Unity for development:
  • Operating system:
    • Windows (64-bit versions only): 7 SP1+, 8, 10
    • macOS: 10.11+
  • GPU:
    • Graphics card with Direct X10 (shader model 4.0) capabilities
• For running Unity games:
  • In general terms, content in Unity can be developed to run on almost any device, but don't forget that this depends on the complexity of our project.
  • As we are using the game kits, the following are needed:
    • OSes are Windows 7 SP1+, macOS 10.11+, Ubuntu 12.04+, and SteamOS+
    • Graphics card with DX10 (shader model 4.0) capabilities
    • CPU is SSE2 instruction set supported...
