Recommended Unity Version

Currently Game Kit Controller requires a minimum version of Unity 2017.1.0f3. You should not use an older version than this because Unity is not backwards compatible with older versions of Unity.

GKC will soon require a minimum Unity version of Unity 2019.4 LTS in a future update, keep an eye on the Discord or Changelog for more information on when this change will happen.

Game Kit Controller generally works with all newer LTS versions too (i.e. 2020 LTS), and they are officially supported. Support for pre-release versions of Unity will be limited due to their unstable nature.

When the minimum version of Unity changes to 2019.4 LTS GKC will no longer support older Unity versions like 2018 or 2017.

If you need to continue using an older version of Unity you will unfortunately have to use an older version of GKC with support for your Unity version.
