There are 2 types of assets: 3D assets made by the Substance team, and Community assets made by users.

Steam does not have access to the 23K "Substance 3D Assets" at https://substance3d.adobe.com/assets
With the subscription on Steam you get 1000 curated assets especially for gaming.

If you want unlimited access this is only via subscription on Adobe.com.

You have access however to the "community assets", which are 2000 assets made by users, at https://substance3d.adobe.com/community-assets/

Hello. Will the assets that are currently free in the Steam version be available after 2026 for those who purchase Painter 2025?

Those assets are available with the Subscription, not the perpetual versions. They remain available for all subscribers.

I don't know how the legality of the fine print works, but if you download the assets you have em. There's no DRM on them, so unless you were to delete them you wouldn't lose access to them. I don't know if you're allowed to use them after the fact though. Commercially, for personal use/etc. Read up on the EULA (good luck finding a recent one) for Painter or rather, read the 3D Assets EULA on Adobe's website, as this is pretty much the same thing, you're getting access to extra assets.
But both the indie assets and the 3D assets will continue to work. I kinda wrote this like your question concerned the indie assets and not the 3D assets on the website, my bad.

thanks for the info. i would use most of the stuff for learning and reverse engineering. under no circumstances would i ever use someone else's material on anything. kinda beats the whole point anyway, at least for me. i also think that for my case its better to purchase some materials on art station since they are very cheap
