Move VMs from ESX 3.5 to 6.0

I have an older vSphere 3.5 I need to migrate machines to our 6.0 vCenter and 6.0 hosts.

 

If I just shut down the VMs, copy the files to a datastore available to my vCenter 6 hosts, and add to inventory - will that work? Does that update the Virtual Machine version when doing this, or do I have to use VM Converter to copy the machines to get the VM Machine Version updated?

 

Or is there some other recommended method to migrate these machines from 3.5 to 6.0?

 

Thanks to anyone who takes the time to respond, I do appreciate it.
