Microsoft today announced that Visual Studio 2015 (VS 2015), the latest version of the company's integrated development environment, will launch on July 20.

Microsoft has also partnered with the likes of Unity, Epic Games ( the company behind Unreal engine ) and Chukong Technologies ( the developers of Cocos2d ) to enhance built-in support for game development with VS 2015

Visual Studio will come in two subscription flavors:Enterprise and Pro. The company will also offer a standalone, non-subscription version of VS Professional for $499.
Microsoft will also offer a free Community edition of VS 2015 for open source projects, academic research, education and small teams.
The launch date is not a complete surprise, given that Windows 10 will launch barely a week after VS 2015, on July 29.
