I had the same issue with the MVC template not appearing in VS2015    I checked Web Developer Tools when originally installing  It was still checked when trying to Modify the install  I tried unchecking and updating the install but next time I went back to Modify  it was still checked  And still no MVC template   I got it working by uninstalling  Microsoft ASP NET Web Frameworks and Tools 2015 via the Programs and Features windows and re-installing  Here s the link for those who don t have it

I m going to add my 2 cents in case someone finds himself in a position like mine  I too was looking for an MVC project type and could not see it  All I saw is a  Web Application Project   So I freaked out and rushed into trying all solutions listed on this page   But   IT IS ACTUALLY THERE     Just go with the  Web application  project and it will give you the MVC option on the next step

Visual studio 2015 does not show MVC project template if you select  Net 4 0 or below  Select  Net 4 5 or above  and you will be able to see MVC project   This is what showed when you select  NET Framework 4     and this when you select  NET Framework 4 5     However  make sure you have installed web developers tools  To do so  go to  Add   remove programs -  Visual 2015 -  Modify --   Web developer tools   Check and proceed with the installation

I don t think the accepted answer works anymore  According to Microsoft here  here  and here  asp net-5 has been re-branded to ASP Net Core  It looks like they ve taken down the asp net-5 templates from the general ASP Net Web Application project type  But now there s a new project type of ASP Net Core Web Application  I don t see an MVC template for this project type  but I don t think the Core framework has been completely released yet

For me  I saw none of the MVC templates  except the bottom two   after installing Update 3 which installed all the Core stuff     Solution  I downloaded most recent core preview       It prompted me for  repair  and after it was done  bringing up VS indicated it was  Installing Templates  and they appeared   Warning   Update 3 is a game changer in that the  preferred  way of doing things is to use dotnetcore   For example a console application now uses the new file stucture  other projects such as a Test Project still use the same folder structure as before   But MVC has changed   I m not even sure what other  Web Developer Tools  work with dotnetcore right now
