Anycubic’s newest 3D printer is the Kobra 3 Max V2, an open-frame bedslinger (its bed moves front to back) announced in August 2026 and shipping since September 2026 at $599 in the US. The table lists all eight Anycubic printers in the database, newest announcement first, with release month, status and US launch price.

The database covers FDM (filament) printers only, so Anycubic’s resin (Photon) printers are not listed.

What is Anycubic’s newest 3D printer?

The Kobra 3 Max V2 is Anycubic’s newest 3D printer, announced in August 2026 and shipping since September 2026 at $599 without the ACE 2 Pro color unit. It prints 420 × 420 × 500 mm and has a 350 °C hotend with a hardened steel nozzle. Anycubic has announced no newer FDM printer.

Before it came the Kobra 4, shown at the RAPID + TCT 2026 trade show in Boston in April 2026 and released in May 2026 at $379. It is a 260 × 260 × 260 mm bedslinger with a built-in camera.

The newest model in each line:

  • Kobra 3: Kobra 3 Max V2 (August 2026, $599), the update of the Kobra 3 Max and the only Kobra 3 model still on sale. Anycubic’s US store lists the Kobra 3, Kobra 3 V2 and Kobra 3 Max under End Of Life.
  • Kobra 4: Kobra 4 (April 2026, $379), the only model in the line so far.
  • Kobra X: Kobra X (November 2025, $399), with four spools fed through an ACE Gen 2 built into the printhead. It shipped from March 2026.
  • Kobra S1: Kobra S1 Max (November 2025, $899), an enclosed CoreXY printer (the bed moves only up and down) with a 65 °C heated chamber and a 350 × 350 × 350 mm build volume. It shipped from May 2026.

Anycubic’s recent store prices are in Anycubic 3D printer prices, and every spec sheet is linked from the Anycubic brand page.

What did Anycubic announce at Formnext?

Anycubic debuted three FDM printers at Formnext, the additive manufacturing trade show in Frankfurt: the Kobra S1 and Kobra 3 Max in November 2024, and the Kobra X in November 2025. Each went on sale within four months of its debut. As of October 30, 2026, Anycubic has not said what it will show at Formnext 2026.

By show:

  • Formnext 2024: the Kobra S1, which Anycubic called its first enclosed CoreXY multicolor printer, with a 250 × 250 × 250 mm build volume. It launched at $549 and shipped in February 2025. Alongside it came the Kobra 3 Max, a 420 × 420 × 500 mm bedslinger that launched at $699 and also shipped in February 2025.
  • Formnext 2025: the Kobra X, a 260 × 260 × 260 mm bedslinger with four-color printing built in. It launched at $399 and shipped from March 2026. The Kobra S1 Max was on the stand too. Anycubic had announced it before the show, on November 5, when deposits opened.
  • Formnext 2026 (November 17 to 20): no Anycubic printer announced for the show as of October 30.

Anycubic’s resin printers shown at the same shows, the Photon Mono M7 Max in 2024 and the Photon P1 in 2025, fall outside this FDM database.

Which printers did Anycubic release in 2025 and 2026?

Anycubic released three FDM printers in 2025 and four so far in 2026. The Kobra S1 and Kobra 3 Max went on sale in February 2025 and the Kobra 3 V2 in June 2025. In 2026 came the Kobra X in March, the Kobra 4 and Kobra S1 Max in May, and the Kobra 3 Max V2 in September.

Each with its announcement month and US launch price:

  • 2025: Kobra S1 (announced November 2024, $549), Kobra 3 Max (November 2024, $699) and Kobra 3 V2 (May 2025, $349).
  • 2026: Kobra X (November 2025, $399), Kobra 4 (April 2026, $379), Kobra S1 Max (November 2025, $899) and Kobra 3 Max V2 (August 2026, $599).

The Kobra S1 Max waited longest between announcement and release, six months. The Kobra 3 V2, Kobra 4 and Kobra 3 Max V2 each went on sale the month after Anycubic unveiled them.

Announced printers from every brand that have not shipped yet are in upcoming 3D printers, and this year’s releases from every maker are in new 3D printers of 2026.
