What is the difference between a Cinema 4D + Redshift Bundle and Cinema 4D Subscription (as of September 2024)

Cinema 4D subscriptions now come with Redshift GPU built-in for users who purchase or renew from September 1st, 2024, onwards.

This means that there is no need for a separate Redshift Licence to use Redshift GPU with Cinema 4D, and as such, there will no longer be a separate listing for it in your License - meaning it cannot be split and used somewhere else but will licence Redshift on the machine that Cinema 4D is activated on, for other DCCs.

You can see your licenses at a glance in the My Licenses tab of the latest Maxon App version - 2025.0.0.

• Cinema 4D licenses that include the Redshift GPU (as of September 1, 2024)
  'Cinema 4D Commercial'
  

If you have a Cinema 4D + Redshift Bundle, then when this renews, this will include a Cinema 4D Licence that can use Redshift GPU and an additional Redshift license that can be utilized in other 3rd Party Software or an additional Team Render system.

It will look like this;

• Cinema 4D+Redshift combined license
  'Cinema 4D (Redshift Bundle)'
  

IMPORTANT TO NOTE:

Cinema 4D-only subscriptions that have yet to renew from September 2024 will look like this;

• Cinema 4D licenses that do not include Redshift GPUs.
  'C4D Commercial'
  

For example, if your Cinema 4D license renews on December 1st, 2024 you will not have access to Redshift GPU until December 1st, 2024 when your license renews.
