unity hasn't yet released a directx 12 version.
In January they claimed there would be one out well in time for windows 10 release. We can only assume it'll be soon.

If you turn off the Automatic Graphics API setting in the build/settings options you can select which API's you would prefer. DirectX 12 experimental is available.
Note that this is an early experimental port of the DX11 API and does not have the multi-threading capabilities needed to really gain significant benefits from DirectX 12.
The multi-threading and improved DirectX 12 capabilities are on the roadmap with full DX12 support due in the 5.3 build due around December.
