In terms of highest weights, we establish branching rules for finite dimensional unitary simple modules of the general linear Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{gl}_{m|n}$. Our proof uses the Howe duality for $\mathfrak{gl}_{m|n}$, as well as branching rules for Kac modules. Moreover, we derive the branching rules of type 2 unitary simple $\mathfrak{gl}_{m|n}$-modules, which are dual to the aforementioned unitary modules.
