Autodesk has announced the release of Maya 2023.3. New features and improvements include:

  • In the Proximity Wrap tool, a new Transform As Deformation option specifies whether the transform of the driver is used for deformation or whether it is kept separate. The Driver Cluster Matrix attribute can also be used to better preserve rotation and scaling.
  • New options for left-drag behaviour when working with keyframes. 
  • Options in the Hypershade work area allow the user to set default grid visibility, grid snapping, display modes, and swatch sizing.
  • Updates to the Autodesk Translation Framework to allow users to transfer data and files within projects with support for Catia V5-6R2022 and Alias 2023 models.
  • Includes MaxtoA 5.4.2.7 which promises a smoother artist experience, addressing issues with Physical Materials, Volume materials, and more.
  • Plus many more small fixes and improvements. 

To see a full list, visit the What’s New in the Maya 2023.3 Update page. To see a list of all the fixes, visit the online changelog.

That’s not really a fair comparison. Blender only had a few months between updates, whereas the Max and Maya updates probably took a year.
