Change Summary
Unity updated its dispute resolution procedures on May 23, 2026 by reorganizing how governing law and arbitration rules apply across different geographic regions. The updated terms now explicitly specify that users located in England will have disputes administered by the London Court of International Arbitration under New York law, whereas previously England was not explicitly listed. The terms also reorganized the table structure for other regions (China/Hong Kong/Macau, Asia-Pacific, and worldwide) to clarify which arbitration institution and governing law applies to each location, but the substantive arbitration rules and procedures for those regions remain unchanged.
