- To differentiate its pricing model from previous releases.
- To reduce the confusion caused by naming versions with a year while they are stabilised over many years.
- Secret future reasons.
- To increase the development cycle past the yearly model.
Probably to every two years.
Unity 6 is Unity 2023LTS rebrand, which will come out at the end of the year 2024. The yearly model doesn't work with such delays.
Also
5. To beat make it clearer they are one version ahead of Unreal
where do you have the info from that 6 will be released at the end of the year?
