===Runtime fee scandal===
On September 12, 2023, Unity announced that usage of the engine would become subject to runtime fees beginning on January 2024, calculated per-installation and charged monthly, if the product reaches specific revenue and lifetime installation thresholds. Unity states that this is required to "allow creators to keep the ongoing financial gains from player engagement."
