Creality K3 Launches in the US at $849 With a Four-Nozzle Multicolor System

Creality has announced official US availability of the K3, a multicolor 3D printer with four independent nozzles, starting at $849. In a press release dated November 3, 2026, the company said the first pre-orders began shipping on November 2. Buyers through November 30 get four free rolls of Hyper PLA filament.

What is new

The K3 is Creality's latest flagship in its K Series and an IFA Innovation Awards 2026 Honoree. Its KliTek system keeps different filaments ready in four independent nozzles. Instead of purging one nozzle between colors, the printer swaps nozzles in about five seconds. Creality says that in its internal testing, this cut total print time by up to 80% and material waste by up to 85% compared with conventional single-nozzle multicolor printing. It notes that results vary with materials, models and print conditions.

Key specifications from Creality's store page:

• 260 × 260 × 260 mm build volume
• Up to 500 mm/s and 20,000 mm/s²
• Four nozzles in 0.2, 0.4, 0.6 or 0.8 mm, up to 300°C
• 100°C PEI bed
• 37 sensors, 720p camera
• Native root access
• 22 kg

With optional accessories, the K3 can mix nozzle sizes in one print. An optional top cover adds engineering materials such as ABS, ASA and nylon, and a TPU Kit adds soft TPU and soluble supports.

Price, offer and shipping

• Price: from $849 in the US.
• Launch offer: four free Hyper PLA rolls with K3 purchases through November 30. Orders on Creality's official store also qualify for free shipping during the promotional period.
• Europe: availability is expected in December 2026.

Check the ship date. The release says the K3 is now available and that the first pre-orders shipped on November 2. However, when we checked the Creality US store on November 3, 2026 at 13:28 UTC, the K3 page still read "(Pre-order)" at $849.00 and said "Estimated shipping begins in early December." New orders may not ship until December. Confirm the date at checkout if timing matters.
