Big news for Midjourney users: V8.1 is live, and it’s the fastest, most refined version yet.
Here’s what’s new:
HD mode is now 3x faster and 3x cheaper, and Midjourney has made it the default. Standard resolution got a serious speed boost too, now as fast as V7’s draft mode, perfect for rapid exploration and iteration.
The aesthetic leans into what made V7 so beloved. Moodboards and style references (srefs) are stable and consistent in a way the community has been asking for.
On top of that, image prompts and image weights are back by popular demand. There’s also a new Prompt Shortener for when you push past the character limit, and an updated Describe tool that generates longer, more detailed prompts matched to V8’s style.
If you’ve been waiting to try V8, this is the version to jump in on.
