    Today, we are starting a limited roll-out of a new approach to help beginners get started with Unity. We’re excited about these improvements, and when ready, we expect to roll this out to all new users in the coming months. This new approach is specifically built for absolute beginners to Unity only. If you have used Unity before and have it installed on your computer, you will note that this new experience does not show up for you. If you’re an existing user and are just dying to see this, please contact us as there some Unity setup steps needed.

    For those interested, this new experience starts from a new Beta version of the Unity Hub. The sign-up and download flow has been greatly simplified, including the removal of the long user survey (Yay!). You are guided to choose from three new beginner game templates.

    ​


    Each template has a Walkthrough that lets you modify the game while helping you get to grips with the basics of interacting with Unity. Below are some screen shots from the new beginner Unity editor experience:


    ​


    We are also launching a new Getting Started Course on Unity Learn and some template specific groups on Connect.

    If you are interested in following what’s happening with the rollout, we will be posting updates and listening to feedback in this thread.

    Hello! I am super excited for these new introductory templates! Just how guided is the walk through? Is there a voice guiding you or just pop-ups? Also, does it cover the theory craft aspect of game design and or the technical aspects?

    What's the plan to keep these updated? It wasn't too long ago that the Interactive Tutorials were rolled out and yet we've already got threads asking why they're broken with the recent stable releases. If the goal is to assist beginners one of the more important things isn't to keep bringing out new tutorials. It's to ensure that they're not broken immediately.

    Just ignore the Interactive Tutorials. We've had enough threads mentioning they weren't working to suggest that it's very hit or miss whether you will be able to get them working. None of the other tutorials have these problems that I'm aware of.

    This actually looks very interesting. Has there been any updates since March to be able to test these?

    I have this same issue. I tried to download the tutorial materials but all I see is the Unity Hub page asking me to either add or create a project after clicking the link "Open in Unity". It doesn't open and I have the most recent version on Win 7-64.

    This is a huge deal and is the biggest frustration. All of the beginner tutorials need to have as the first step a description of the setup needed and a prequel tutorial to achieve that setup. All versions should be a specific version that was used for the tutorial (NOT just a range) and also any add ins from the asset store need to be listed with specific versions as well.

    Hi! I'm really invigorated for these new basic layouts! Exactly how directed is the stroll through? Is there a voice directing you or simply pop-ups? Likewise, does it cover the hypothesis create part of game plan as well as the specialized angles?
