Adobe CS6 shipping + creative cloud trial [UPDATE]: online

by Sebastian WöberMay 14^th, 2012

As announced on April 23rd, the newest and most feature-packed version of Adobe’s design tools, Creative Suite 6, just started shipping.

What’s really exciting though is the “creative cloud”:
Adobe is launching their new creative cloud service in 2 days.

Basically it’s the whole creative suite with some advanced cloud sharing features, but you’re paying on a monthly basis ($49.99 and $29.99 for students) to use an online version of all CS applications, much like an App Store if you will.

The cloud version of CS6 will set you back $600 a year while the retail version of the whole bundle is $2599.
This is how you access the 30-day free trial:
Go to Adobe’s creative cloud page, click “join” and on the next screen you can choose the free trial.

If you own a previous CS version you can start a creative cloud membership for a reduced price of $29/month:
