From 22nd April, 2024, Epic Games is introducing a new pricing and licensing model for Twinmotion customers who generate over $1 million USD annually. Twinmotion will be free for everyone else.
It's important to note that these licensing changes will only apply to companies generating over $1 million in annual gross revenue. Twinmotion will be free for everyone—even for commercial use—if your company earns under this threshold.
Twinmotion will also remain free to use for students, educators, and hobbyists. Looking ahead there will no longer be an Education Edition or Community Edition; everyone eligible to use Twinmotion for free will use the same version and you’ll get it from the Epic Games launcher, just as you do today.
This change will bring an end to the Twinmotion perpetual licence, and introduce Twinmotion as an annual subscription.
What do these changes mean for existing users?
- Versions previous to Twinmotion 2023.2.4 will remain perpetual;
- Customers who purchased an upgrade to Twinmotion will receive updates, hot-fixes and patches for one (1) year from the date of purchase;
- Perpetual upgrades will no longer be sold;
- If you’re currently using Twinmotion 2023.2.3 or any other prior versions, pricing and licensing changes will not apply to you until you decide to update to 2023.2.4 or later versions. If you have perpetual licenses of Twinmotion Commercial Edition, you can continue to use these forever, regardless of your annual revenue. Seat subscription will only be required to get new releases (if you’re not eligible for the free version), or to publish to Twinmotion Cloud from newer releases;
- If you have a perpetual license of Twinmotion 2023.2.3 Commercial Edition / Education Edition or earlier that includes access to Twinmotion Cloud, you can still use it to publish new projects from that version. However, you will not have access to publish new projects to Twinmotion Cloud from Twinmotion 2023.2.4 or later unless you subscribe to the paid version. You will, however, be able to access and reshare your existing projects that have been uploaded to Twinmotion Cloud.
- Twinmotion Cloud functionality will be for paying license customers only
- There will be no option to purchase Twinmotion Cloud separately from the Twinmotion paid license;
- Community-based support and learning materials will remain open and free to use for everyone, just as they are today. You can access them on the Epic Developer Community.
