BUT!!! we’ll all have versions of ZBrush 2022, 2023, 2024 etc… that will never expire because we purchased a ‘perpetual licence’. So it sounds like perpetual licence holders are going to get shafted when a new version comes out. 7 you have to pay for another full upgrade.Īs far as semantics go your ‘perpetual’ licence for ZBrush 2023 will never expire. This means if they release a ZBrush 2024 or 2025, rather than a ZBrush 2023.5. According to the reply I got from Maxon this allows you to have a perpetual licence for ZBrush 2023…HOWEVER there may be future perpetual upgrades. Holders of a perpetual licence for ZBrush 2022 can upgrade to a perpetual licence for ZBrush 2023 for US$659 in your local currency. It was an interesting answer and it seems we’re dealing with semantics and how you view the phrase ‘perpetual licence’. I just received a response from the people at Maxon regarding updating my perpetual licence from ZBrush 2022 to a perpetual licence for ZBrush 2023. It would be nice if we could get positive answers The offer may be reasonable for new customers with 970.47 EUR who have not yet bought any render software,īut for the owners of KeyShot, Autodesk, Marmoset, VRay, or Arnold, is the Redshift Bridge unfortunately not really interesting, we have everything we need, the Redshift Bridge is an extra product, the Bridge can also be calculated from the offer, it’s hard enough that we have to buy ZBrush a second time, but there is no update offer for the old customers I have listed, who therefore have no need for the Redshift Bridge and of course cannot/don’t want to spend this money on it, you could also render in Blender and that without any costs.

There is no price information for the approximately costs of future updates, we bought KeyShot and we don’t know how it will continue with the upcoming KeyShot 12. If I buy Zbrush 2023 for $659 EUR, do I always have to update every year or can I keep the perpetual license forever from 24 or 2025… The old customers will unfortunately ignored in the offers, because there is no information on important points to make a decision.
