Those prices are for buying new. There has been no announcement as to at what level upgrade prices will be; which is what LE was referring to,

Pez, as I’m sure you noted in your research, the BETA probably won’t be out until December, so you would be waiting a long while if you wanted to wait for public release. I am not sure BETA is even ‘public release?’

December is the planned full release for FGU afaik; beta and alpha are not full scheduled yet. But in the latest kickstarter update, they mentioned august for alpha release, and beta following that depending how alpha goes

They have previously made it clear that the earliest we could hope for the BETA would be December, and software never goes left.

I'm less concerned about being able to get my hands on the Unity version as soon as possible. When it comes it comes and it'll hopefully be a huge step forward over the current version. My worry is mostly spending $123 now and learning I'll have to spend $100 again in December. I know it's extremely unlikely it'll be that expensive but given they haven't outright stated pricing yet it's a worry at the back of my mind. Still I'll try to enjoy the current version til then. Maybe my friends will chip in to get the license if it does end up being too expensive for me.

For reference $149USD Ultimate Unity License would be $197CAD. So as long as the upgrade cost is less than $75CAD I'll feel happy having bought the current version now knowing the Unity version was upcoming.

There is the option to get a subscription instead of the one-time license. You won't get a discount on the FGU license, but it would limit you to $10US/month. So ~$60US.
