Blender 4.2 LTS Brings New Render Engine, GPU Compositor + More

Feeling creative? If you are, be sure to check out the new Blender 4.2 LTS release. Blender 4.2 LTS ships with a slew of new features, performance improvements, and general fixes and tune-ups. It’s also backed by two years of ongoing support, allowing users to adopt this series and only receive bug fixes, not ‘breaking changes’. An overhauled EEVEE render engine ships in Blender 4.2 LTS. Rewritten from scratch to improve the performance, stability, and visual quality of viewport rendering, and provide new shadow and global illumination systems, better motion blur and DoF, etc. And a GPU-accelerated compositor is included
