2026 Development Update: Adobe Dimension (Beta)

Hello everyone!  Jeanette from Adobe here.  I’m very excited to announce that we are opening sign-up for a private beta of a brand new version of Adobe Dimension that has been completely rebuilt for digital twin and product design workflows.

Get more information about Dimension (Beta) and sign up to join the Prerelease program.

The new version is all new architecture for the latest device support including Mac ARM and cross platform accelerated GPU rendering.  The application is based on OpenUSD for improved interop and also includes updated materials with Open PBR and improved rendering engines.  Many workflows have been significantly updated including:

• Improved Decals: Better quality with individual material layers that no longer reduce the resolution of your images
• Variants: A data driven system to create multiple versions of your product like colorways, language, size, and other configurations.
• Shots: Create different camera views and customize lighting per view to get perfect highlights.  Other properties (like active variant, transforms, and visibility) can also be overridden to create more compositions in a single file.
• Improved CAD import and conversion: Our importers have been significantly updated to better handle more formats with higher quality.
• Generative workflows: Both Firefly and partner models are now available and new Generate Render capabilities have been improved for generating backgrounds and context while preserving your digital twins and products
• Scripting and Plugins: The new app is built on Python, QML, and UXP and is fully scriptable and extensible.  This is also the bedrock for bringing in new 3D agentic capabilities.

This is just the start and we’re excited to work with you during our private beta to improve the product!  

See the full HelpX for details but I want to clearly state here that the new version of Dimension will be available to all Dimension and Stager users as we are merging the products.  A single application will make it easier for Adobe to update the product quickly and improve collaboration for companies and teams by providing broader access to this new powerful digital twin creation and rendering tool!
