Unity's path to CoreCLR
Replacing the Mono runtime with modern .NET, targeting Unity 6.8.

UnityUnity committed to replacing its aging Mono scripting runtime with modern .NET CoreCLR, with Unity 6.8 the target version where it becomes the C# foundation.

Unity is shipping quarterly status updates and an upgrade guide ahead of the change.
