Fusion 12 Pro is priced at $199, or $99 as an upgrade. Notably, this is a cross-platform license that allows for any combination of three machines using Fusion 12 or Workstation 16 across Mac, Windows, and Linux. Discounted education pricing will also be available, although many of those users will qualify for free personal licensing.įusion 12 Pro, aimed at developers and IT professionals rather than typical consumer and business users, offers some additional features and a license to run on up to three machines. A commercial license is priced at $149, with a $79 upgrade license available. The basic level of Fusion is now known as Fusion 12 Player and is free for personal use for the first time.
With the launch of Fusion 12, VMware is also restructuring its licensing to bring it in line with Workstation 16, Fusion's sister software for Windows and Linux.
On systems running macOS Catalina, Fusion 12 will continue to run with kernel extensions as it has in the past, but on macOS Big Sur, Fusion will take advantage of Apple's APIs to run virtual machines and containers. Last month, VMware announced the next major version of its virtualization software for Mac, Fusion 12, and as of today, the update is now available.Īs we noted last month, Fusion 12 includes a number of updates and improvements, such as eGPU compatibility, support for container-based applications built with Kubernetes, DirectX 11 and OpenGL 4.1 support, improved security for the sandbox rendering engine, improved accessibility controls, and more.įusion 12 has also been optimized for macOS Big Sur, with both host and guest support for Apple's upcoming release.
