We've got two major announcements today that we're incredibly excited to share: RenderDay now fully supports Blender 5.0, and we've dramatically reduced our prices across the board. Let's dive in.
Massive Price Reductions
We've been working hard on infrastructure improvements, and we're passing those savings directly to you. The results speak for themselves:
| Render Type | Old Price | New Price | You Save |
|---|---|---|---|
| Basic Still Image (1920×1080) | €2.40 | €2.01 | 16% |
| High-Detail Still Image (5000×5000) | €4.15 | €2.26 | 46% |
EEVEE Animation (350 frames) | €75.94 | €2.13 | 97% |
Advanced EEVEE Animation (300 frames) | €252.02 | €2.38 | 99% |
| Cycles Animation (300 frames) | €13.43 | €6.03 | 55% |
| Feature-Length Animation (2410 frames) | €392.30 | €114.12 | 71% |
Yes, you read that right. EEVEE animations that used to cost €75-250 now start at just €2. That's not a typo - it's a 97-99% reduction.
What Changed?
The biggest shift is that EEVEE is now priced similarly to Cycles. Previously, EEVEE renders required significant per-frame overhead that inflated costs. Through infrastructure improvements, we've eliminated most of that overhead, making EEVEE renders dramatically more affordable.
This means:
- Still images start near our €2 minimum
- Short animations are now accessible to everyone
- Long animations cost a fraction of what they used to

Full Blender 5.0 Support
Blender 5.0 launched on November 18, 2025, and RenderDay is ready. Here's what you can now render with us:
Professional Color Workflows
The headline feature of Blender 5.0 is its completely overhauled color management pipeline:
- ACES 1.3 and 2.0 support - Finally, proper ACES workflows are here. If you're working in a professional pipeline that requires ACES compliance, RenderDay now handles it natively.
- HDR rendering - New AgX HDR view transform and Rec.2100-PQ/HLG display support for HDR video export.
- Wide-gamut color spaces - Working color space settings are now properly preserved and rendered.
Rendering Improvements
Blender 5.0 brings significant upgrades to Cycles:
- Unbiased volume rendering - A new null-scattering algorithm eliminates blocky artifacts in overlapping volumes. No more fiddling with step size settings.
- Better subsurface scattering - The random walk algorithm now supports multiple bounces, reducing the darkening artifacts that plagued previous versions.
- Metal iridescence - The thin-film iridescence effect introduced in 4.2 LTS now works on metallic surfaces too.
- Adaptive Subdivision - No longer experimental - it's production-ready and always available.
Animation & Motion Graphics
- Grease Pencil motion blur - Your Grease Pencil objects now properly support motion blur with adjustable quality settings.
- New Geometry Nodes - Volume Grid and SDF nodes open up new procedural possibilities.
- Array and Scatter modifiers - New modeling tools for faster asset creation.
