It's $49. You can run the free version today to check it out. The upgrade will be available tomorrow and it's just a few clicks in the manager tool to upgrade.

Also, I see you have the JS3 Studio expansions and some MiniPaks. They will all also migrate to JS4 with the upgrade at no additional charge.

Great where can I(we) try the free version while we wait until tomorrow? I don't see it but then I guess I can wait a few hours I assume it will ALL be on Shop page tomorrow no matter what

Since I have JS3 Studio I guess I all need is JS4 - sounds like everything will migrate (or work) with JS4
