Maxon has unveiled the latest update to Cinema 4D, along with new subscription options. Previously, Cinema 4D R21 was available in four versions, ranging from a perpetual license of Prime at $995 to Studio at $3,695. Annual maintenance was an option for staying current. The new Cinema 4D R21 is now offered as a single version (comparable to Studio) with a monthly fee of $59.99, billed annually. Alternatively, a monthly subscription is available at a cost of $94.99 per month. A bundle that includes Redshift will also be an option. Perpetual licensing is also still an option at this time.
The update itself boasts a new Caps and Bevel system, new Field Force dynamics, interface speed improvements, and better integration with popular hardware and software technologies, among other enhancements. For a detailed overview, check out the Maxon website. You can also see a preview on YouTube.
