GIMP 3.2 Release Candidate 2 (RC2) is now available for testing as of December 19, 2025. This RC2 incorporates a range of fixes and changes intended for the upcoming stable GIMP 3.2 release. GIMP 3.2 iterates on the significant GIMP 3.0 release that landed earlier this year, which concluded a development cycle spanning over seven years. The GIMP development team has announced a transition to an accelerated development cycle for GIMP 3.2 and future versions, aiming to prevent lengthy gaps between subsequent major releases.
