Creality’s newest 3D printer is the Ender-3 V3 Neo, an open-frame bedslinger (its bed moves front to back) announced and put on sale in the US and Europe on October 15, 2026 at $259 for the printer alone. The table lists all 22 Creality printers in the database, newest announcement first; the Ender-3 Pro and Ender-3 S1 Pro, with no announcement date on record, sort last. Each row shows the release month, status and US launch price.

What is Creality’s newest printer?

The Creality Ender-3 V3 Neo is Creality’s newest printer: an open-frame bedslinger with a 220 × 220 × 220 mm build volume, announced and put on sale on October 15, 2026 at $259. The Creality Ender-3 V3 Mega went on sale in the US and Europe the same day: 420 × 420 × 420 mm at $599.

Two printers announced earlier are not shipping yet: the Creality K3 and the Creality SPARKX i8, both shown at IFA 2026 in Berlin on September 5.

The newest model of each series:

  • Ender series: Ender-3 V3 Neo and Ender-3 V3 Mega (October 2026). Before them came the Ender-3 V4, sold since March 2026 only with a four-spool Creality Filament System (CFS) at $399.
  • K series: K3, an open-frame CoreXY (its bed only moves down) that changes between up to four nozzles, on pre-order at $849. The newest K-series printer on sale is the K2 SE, released in March 2026 at $299.
  • SPARKX series: SPARKX i8, a bedslinger with a four-channel toolhead and a $399 suggested retail price. The SPARKX i7 has been sold since pre-orders opened on January 6, 2026.
  • Hi: Creality Hi, announced at CES 2025 and on sale since March 2025 at $389.

Current prices on Creality’s US store are on the Creality 3D printer prices list.

When is the new Creality printer coming out?

As of October 30, 2026, two announced Creality printers have not shipped. The Creality K3 is on pre-order in the US at $849, and Creality’s store gives an estimated shipping date of November 2, 2026. The Creality SPARKX i8 is crowdfunded on Indiegogo. Creality said its units would ship from the factory in October, with delivery expected in November.

The dates Creality has stated for each:

  • K3: Creality announced US pre-orders on October 13, 2026, and expects European availability in December 2026.
  • SPARKX i8: the Indiegogo campaign opened on September 21, 2026, with a $399 suggested retail price. Creality’s US store listed the i8 as sold out on October 30, 2026.

Creality showed three FDM (filament) printers at IFA 2026: the K3, the SPARKX i8 and the Ender-3 V3 Mega, which went on sale on October 15. No other announced Creality FDM printer was waiting to ship as of October 30, 2026.

Rumored or leaked models stay out of the database, so a new Creality printer appears here once the company announces it with specs. Announced printers from every brand that have not shipped are on the upcoming 3D printers list.

When were Creality’s printers released?

The 20 Creality printers here with an announcement date on record were announced between March 2018 and October 2026: one each in 2018, 2020, 2021 and 2022, three in 2023, two in 2024, seven in 2025 and four so far in 2026. Ten were released the same month. The Creality K2 SE waited longest, from September 2025 to March 2026.

By year of announcement, with the trade show where there was one and the release month:

The six Ender-3 models released from 2018 to 2022 are discontinued.
