Update:  Unfortunately, this method does not work, a person can install Unity, as seen in the video, activate Unity,  install an editor, create projects, but can't open up a project, path not found.  

 However, we found a fix!  That works!  Have a look here for the tutorial and all the commands!

 Today we are looking at how to install Unity3D (Unity Hub) on a Chromebook.  Please follow the video/audio guide as a tutorial where we explain the process step by step and use the commands below.

If you have any questions, please contact us via a YouTube comment and we would be happy to assist you!

Please take note that with the release of Chrome OS 90,  the location of Linux Apps has been changed in the Chromebook’s settings.  Have a look at this tutorial, to see how to turn on Linux apps and then continue with the installation tutorial.

Update: with the release of Chrome OS 96, the Linux container on a Chromebook has been upgraded to a newer version.  Because of this, we need to run one additional command for the application to work, we added it to the list of commands.
Commands Used:
1) sudo apt update
2) sudo apt install flatpak
3) sudo flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
4) sudo flatpak install flathub com.unity.UnityHub
5) sudo chown root:root /usr/bin/bwrap && sudo chmod u+s /usr/bin/bwrap
