Blender Foundation and the online developer community proudly present Blender 5.0!
What’s New
Blender 5.0 is good news across the board. For many, the biggest change is probably the full support for ACES pipelines, improved color management, and HDR capabilities. For others, it might be the new Volumes and SDF nodes in Geometry Nodes. Storytellers will appreciate the new Storyboarding template, if you’re further along in your project perhaps all the new Array or Scatter on Surface modifiers for modeling, the reworked UV Sync, or you may enjoy all the animation and rigging improvements. One thing is certain, everyone will benefit from the 588 bugs fixed.
