Symptoms
- I would like to know if Unity games require additional redistributables (for example Visual Studio Runtime, DirectX, or .NET)?
Cause
Sometimes PC games require additional files to be included with the installation. When shipping with Steam there is a list of redistributables it can automatically install for a game.
Resolution
If you use DirectX, it makes sense to let Steam install it, but you do not need the Visual Studio redistributables, or the .NET runtime.

Hi Liam,
Thanks for the reply.
You are able to download Unity editor via this link : https://unity3d.com/get-unity/download/archive
I hope it helps.
When I copy a Windows Standalone build to inside Windows Sandbox to test, it will not run without the VC Redistributables installed or copied locally.
Hmm perhaps it is because of a dependency I have from one of the projects plugins. A empty Unity project will indeed run without Redistributables
