Hello! I would like to Unity team add Java support in Unity Editor. When will team add Java support in Unity3d?

Never. Just use C#; it’s similar enough.

What a pity! I recently come to Java from C#.

There’s absolutely no problem for experienced programmer to migrate from Java to C#.
Adding new scripting language however means hiring more people to maintain this new feature for Unity Tech. And don’t even get me started on how many additional bugs it will bring. Unity has more than enough of them already.

I can’t imagine that it would particularly add bugs, since all languages in Unity compile to the same CIL code. However I also can’t imagine what the point would be. You would necessarily be using .NET/Mono, so Java syntax + .NET libraries = basically C#.
