How to Upgrade from Episode V5 to Episode V6

The upgrade fee from Episode V5 to Episode V6 is $145, and from Episode Pro V5 to Episode Pro V6 is $295*. In order to get the upgrade price, you must have an activated version of Episode v5.x (or previous version) on your computer. Without this, our system will treat this as a new software purchase and you will be charged the full price.
