Note: When you download the High Definition Render Pipeline package from Package Manager, Unity automatically installs the Visual Effect Graph package. It also does not support every feature that is does with HDRP and also only supports unlit particles. The Visual Effect Graph is not out of preview with URP and so only supports a subset of platforms that URP supports.

Universal Render Pipeline (URP): Unity 2019.3 or newer.

For information on which platforms this includes, see HDRP's system requirements. The Visual Effect Graph supports every platform that HDRP supports.

High Definition Render Pipeline (HDRP): Unity 2018.3 or newer.

Visual Effect graph uses on compute Shaders to simulate effects. Visual Effect Graph is a Unity package that uses a Scriptable Render Pipeline to render visual effects. For an overview of how the graph works, see Graph Logic and Philosophy.
