– New base solver for improved detail.
– New Splash and Foam emitters handled quickly.
RealFlow Graph
– New, visual node-based method to set up links between scene elements.
– Create RealFlow Simulation Graphs wherever and whenever during the simulation so you can create/modify/extract data from scene elements.
RenderKit 3.0
– Improved mesher algorithm for Hybrido 2 for greater detail.
– New Anisotropic Mesher for particle-based sims.
Alembic I/O
– Alembic format will be available for both geometry and particles.
Caronte Body Dynamics Solver
– Faster and more robust.
– Improved fracturing tools.
Viewport+
– Enhanced workflow, even when working with millions of particles.
– Orbit MASSIVE amounts of data.
Maxwell Render
– Preview your simulation renders in the background with Maxwell Render.
– Photorealistic Maxwell Render materials provided.

Nice features/improvements but still an expensive “free” upgrade.
LOL, they sure want us to buy more stuff at discounted rates but sure want us to pay a premium for subscription.
