    Unfortunately, this is correct. Only Guitar Rig 6 is included. I guess Komplete 15 will have it.

    Hopefully, you did at least get the discount of the Summer Sale and did not buy full price

    Check your facts and think…

    Komplete 14 was released in September 2022. How could it include something that was released a year later?

    As others have said, when NI release their Komplete packages, the biggest one (Collectors Edition) contains virtually everything (if not everything) that NI (not other companies owned by NI) has at the time of its release.

    Where NI have messed up is they haven’t changed their collectors edition wording, which still says

    ——————------
    HAVE IT ALL

    Get total creative freedom with almost everything we’ve ever released 

    ——————------

    They only have to add a few extra words to say something like

    "Get total creative freedom with almost everything we’ve ever released up to September 2022”

    But of course that doesn’t sound as good and makes k14 seem old.


    Anything NI releases after that date is never included until the next version of Komplete (Komplete 15 in this case).


    If you think about it, this makes sense.


    If NI gives you everything that’s been releases in the past two years since Komplete 14 was announced, they would have to give it to everyone else that already owned Komplete 14.

    Obviously if they did that, they would make zero money and go bankrupt , and there would be no point of releasing Komplete 15 as everyone that owned 14, would already own it all.


    I own Komplete 14 CE and in their last sale over Xmas, I bought both Guitar rig 7 and Session Percussionist. I know both will more than likely be in Komplete 15 CE but I wanted them at Christmas, I didn’t want to wait around a year (if they follow their normal release cycle) before I got them in k15.


    I’ve looked at the current sale and there’s lots that aren’t in k14CE that I wouldn’t mind having. But nothing I need right now so I’m happy to give this sale a miss and purchase the upgrade to 15 (if it’s released later this year) to get them all (or at least wait and see what’s included in k15CE before deciding what to do)

    K14CE is still a superb bargain, presuming you bought it in the current sale which just started, and as their sale is on, you can upgrade your GR6 to GR7 cheaply. Make sure you’re logged in to them, the upgrade price will be less than their sale price.
