If you are on the Eklipse Plus plan today, your account moves to the new Premium tier on June 1, 2026, alongside the launch of Gameplay Intelligence. This guide explains exactly what changes, what stays the same, and what (if anything) you need to do.
Key takeaways
- Eklipse Plus consolidates into Premium on June 1, 2026
- Your existing Plus subscription rolls into Premium at your current billing rate, no re-signup required
- Gameplay Intelligence is included automatically on the new Premium tier
- All Plus features carry over, you do not lose access to anything you have today
- You do not need to take any action, the transition is automatic
Why Plus is moving to Premium #
On June 1, 2026, Eklipse launches Gameplay Intelligence, the new highlight detection engine that replaces the previous AI layer on Premium plans. As part of that launch, the Plus tier consolidates into a single Premium tier.
The reason is alignment, not a product change. Plus and Premium were close enough in scope that maintaining two paid tiers added confusion without adding value. Consolidating to one Premium tier makes the upgrade path clearer for free users and removes ambiguity for existing paid users about which tier includes which feature.
What changes for your account #
Tier name #
Your account label changes from Plus to Premium in your dashboard, settings, and billing.
Detection engine #
Your account runs on Gameplay Intelligence starting June 1, 2026. The previous detection layer is replaced. Practically, this means:
- Sharper moment detection across all supported games
- Scene-aware clip boundaries instead of fixed-window cuts
- Per-genre tuning (FPS, BR, MOBA, tactical, strategy) applied automatically
For a full breakdown of how the new engine works, see how Gameplay Intelligence picks moments.

Pricing #
Your current Plus billing rate carries over to Premium. There is no launch-related price increase tied to this consolidation. If you are on Annual, your annual rate stays as it is until your next renewal.
Renewal date #
Your next renewal date does not change. The transition is mid-cycle for most users, no proration or restart is applied.
What stays the same #
- Your account, login, and connected Twitch (or Kick) channel
- Your clip library, exports, and saved templates
- Your billing method and renewal cycle
- Pro Edits, watermark removal, and priority processing
- All Plus-tier features you currently have access to
The transition is name-and-engine only. Nothing in your existing workflow disappears.
What you need to do #
Nothing. The change is automatic on June 1, 2026.
You do not need to:
- Re-sign up
- Re-enter payment details
- Re-connect Twitch or Kick
- Migrate your clip library
- Cancel and re-subscribe
When you sign in on or after June 1, your dashboard shows the Premium badge in place of the Plus badge, and your VODs process through Gameplay Intelligence by default.
What this means in practice #
For an active streamer #
For an active streamer running 4–8 hour Twitch or Kick sessions: your clip output changes on June 1, 2026, because the detection engine changes. Expect fewer false positives, clip lengths that match the moment instead of fixed windows, and noticeably better handling if you switch between game genres (FPS one night, talk-heavy the next).
For a multi-platform creator #
For a multi-platform creator: nothing in your distribution flow changes. Eklipse Studio and the Content Publisher work the same way. The change is upstream of those tools.
For editor-focused users #
For an account that mostly uses the editor without highlight detection: your editing experience is unchanged. Gameplay Intelligence affects detection only.
If you want to downgrade or cancel #
You can cancel Premium at any point under Settings → Billing → Cancel Plan. Your access continues until the end of the current billing period. After cancellation:
- Your account drops to the free tier
- You receive 3 highlights generated by Gameplay Intelligence (the same trial every free user gets)
- Instant Edit, Convert to TikTok, manual editing, and your Twitch connection remain free
- Your clip library stays accessible
This is the same path available to any user, the only difference for former Plus users is that you have already used the engine for the period your paid plan covered.
Frequently asked questions #
Q: Do I lose any Plus features when my account moves to Premium? #
A: No. Every feature included in your Plus plan is included in Premium. The consolidation is a name change plus the addition of Gameplay Intelligence, not a feature reduction.
Q: Will my Plus discount or grandfathered rate carry over? #
A: Yes. If you are on a grandfathered or promotional rate, that rate carries into Premium for the remainder of your current billing cycle and renews at the rate listed in your billing settings.
Q: I am on Annual Plus. Does my renewal change? #
A: Your renewal date and rate stay the same. On June 1, your tier label updates to Premium and your account starts running on Gameplay Intelligence. Billing is untouched until your annual renewal.
Q: I just upgraded to Plus last week. Did I waste money? #
A: No. The plan you paid for carries forward at the same rate, with the addition of Gameplay Intelligence on June 1, 2026. You are getting the new engine at the price you signed up at.
Q: Can I switch from Monthly to Annual before June 1 to lock the rate? #
A: Yes. Open Settings → Billing → Change Plan and select Annual. Your existing Monthly billing prorates against the Annual price.
Q: What is the actual difference between Plus today and Premium on June 1? #
A: Gameplay Intelligence. Beyond that, your feature set is the same.
Q: Where can I read more about the new engine? #
A: Start with how Gameplay Intelligence works for the technical overview, or see the AI highlights feature page for the product-level summary.
