Midjourney V7 (released April 2025) represents a complete system overhaul, delivering unprecedented photorealism with visible pores, accurate lens effects, and perfect anatomical accuracy. Draft Mode generates images 10x faster at half the cost, perfect for rapid iteration. The new full image editor includes layer editing, retexturing, and conversation mode for refinements. Personalization by default tailors outputs to your aesthetic preferences. Character consistency ensures the same faces appear across multiple images. While originally Discord-only, the web interface is now fully functional. Midjourney remains the go-to choice for high-end creative assets and concept art.
