Unity 6 has been withdrawn in China and substituted with a localized edition

The sale of Unity 6 has been discontinued in China.

Reports from 80 Level and PocketGamer reveal that Unity has been withdrawn from the market in mainland China, Hong Kong, and Macau. It has been replaced by a version called Tuanjie, tailored for the Chinese market.

A machine-translated statement from the company conveys that "Unity 6 and subsequent versions will no longer be available to Chinese customers," as part of an effort to offer game engine services that better fit local demands. The company plans to enhance Unity 6's features further in 2025 to cater to the needs of Chinese users.

The Unity Engine is praised for its strong localized services, including solutions for small games, OpenHarmony, and automotive HMI, effectively addressing market needs. Unity China is committed to gathering developer input, refining pricing for smaller studios, introducing favorable licensing, and reducing creation barriers.

Despite these changes, Unity China's support will persist for "Unity 2022 LTS and earlier versions," and ongoing projects will remain unaffected.

Unity also expressed earlier assurances to continue supporting developers with "official support for Nintendo Switch 2" development.
