Releases
Blender Foundation follows a predictable release cycle, publishing three major releases every year, including one Long-Term Support (LTS) release. LTS releases receive monthly bug-fix updates for two years, while regular releases are supported until the next one arrives.
Although every Blender release remains available for download, the latest LTS or stable release is recommended for general use and production.
Happy Blending!

A Taste of the Future
Blender Early Access includes the latest features and fixes, but it may be unstable and is not recommended for production use.
