24K Drums not included in Komplete CE 15?

A few days ago I dropped $250 on upgrading from Komplete 13 Ultimate to 15 Collectors Edition to feel like I own the NI world, so to speak. Then, they drop Absynth 6, lovely, but they want another $99.

Today I'm watching Jeff Gibbons insanely informative video on how to get up to speed with Kontakt 8 and all its new bells and whistles, and he loads up 24K Drums for an example. I thought, 'oh these sound great!', surely I must have missed seeing that one?

Scoured the library, no 24K Drums Play Series instrument.

Why? :(

Komplete contains products that were available at the time of its release which was September 2024 but not products released after that. The 24K series was released in March 2025 so it wasn't included. Same goes for Absynth 6.

You can expect they'll be included in Komplete 16 when it drops, probably around September next year.

Please check the Komplete15 Collectors Edition compare page to see what is included.

The great news is that now that you have upgraded to the Komplete bundle CE tier then, if bundle structures remain the same (which for me personally is an unknown), then now that you have already upgraded to CE then you only need to pay the update price to get the newest iteration of Komplete CE once it arrives

The respectful release dates of Komplete 15 and then 24K Drums were an oversight on my part, I didn't realize the latter was still so recent and now understand why it isn't part of the bundle just yet.
