Can you ship a game made with TRELLIS.2? Commercial terms are only partly verified. This is not a yes. The model card says TRELLIS.2-4B is released under the MIT License. MIT allows commercial use, but check the pipeline's dependencies (see caveats).
TRELLIS.2 is Microsoft's open-weights image-to-3D model (4B parameters) that turns one image into a textured mesh with PBR materials. Code and weights are MIT-licensed, but you run it yourself on a 24GB+ NVIDIA GPU, and the reference pipeline pulls in NVIDIA libraries licensed for non-commercial use.

Built only from rows with a stored vendor quote. The facts below carry the exact sentence, source link, and fetch date.
Verified means the quote was copied from the source page on the fetched date. It goes stale after 30 days until the checker sees it again.
Free to download. There is no hosted paid plan from Microsoft. Running it needs Linux and an NVIDIA GPU with at least 24GB of memory.
Hardware : An NVIDIA GPU with at least 24GB of memory is necessary.

The reference setup installs NVIDIA's nvdiffrast and nvdiffrec. nvdiffrast's license allows non-commercial (research or evaluation) use only.
3.3 Use Limitation. The Work and any derivative works thereof only may be used or intended for use non-commercially.

A TRELLIS.2 collaborator says nvdiffrast and nvdiffrec are only for visualization and can be left out if you only need the 3D model, and that DINOv3 is mandatory, so check its license. Users in the same thread asked whether textured GLB export still needs nvdiffrast. That was unanswered when we fetched it.
nvdiffrec and nvdiffrast are used only for visualization. If you only need the 3D model, you can safely omit them. DINOv3 is a mandatory dependency, so you will need to check its license.

Player-facing art, sound, narrative, or localization made with this tool is the kind of shipped content Steam's Content Survey asks about (Pre-Generated). This is Valve's rule, not a statement from the vendor.
Pre-Generated: Any kind of content that ships with your game and is consumed by players that is created with the help of AI tools during development.

The output is a mesh with PBR materials, and the repo's example exports GLB. Voxel resolution runs from 512³ to 1536³.
