About Midjourney V8.2

Midjourney V8.2 is an AI image generation model that became the default Midjourney version on July 24, 2026. It generates images from written prompts and supports image references, style references and personalized aesthetics. The version introduces improvements focused on visual quality, aesthetics and personalization.

The model supports standard image generation and HD output at 2048 pixels. Standard images support aspect ratios up to 14:1, while HD images support aspect ratios up to 4:1. Users can control image characteristics through stylization, Raw mode, image weighting, style references, seed values and other documented parameters.

Midjourney V8.2 is compatible with the Edit Model, which supports modifying existing images through written instructions and generating compositions using up to four reference images. Editing functions include inpainting, outpainting, perspective changes and style transformations. The Edit Model replaces the earlier Omni Reference, Character Reference and Retexture functionality.

The model also supports Personalization profiles, allowing users to influence generated images based on their aesthetic preferences. Users can create additional profiles, apply Moodboards and adjust the strength of personalization. Midjourney V8.2 is accessible through the Midjourney website and Discord, serving artists, designers, illustrators and other visual content creators.
