Description

Manjaro Linux 26.0 GNOME 64-bit, released in January 2026, is a user-friendly Arch-based Linux distribution aimed at desktop users, developers, and power users who want a rolling-release system with modern packages and broad hardware support. This 64-bit GNOME edition is designed for current x86-64 PCs and laptops.

Manjaro Linux 26.0 focuses on a polished GNOME desktop experience with updated system components, refreshed application integration, and the distribution’s familiar hardware detection and driver tooling. Users can expect the usual Manjaro workflow improvements such as easier installation, access to stable repositories, and streamlined package management through KDE Plasma, Xfce, and the GNOME desktop in this release family. As a rolling-release system, it continues to deliver current kernel, firmware, and desktop updates, while preserving the project’s emphasis on accessibility and ease of use. It remains a strong choice for users who want Arch Linux foundations without manual setup.

Manjaro Linux 26.0 is supported as part of the project’s rolling-release model, so maintenance continues through regular updates rather than a fixed end-of-life date. This is not an LTS release.
