An account suggests that Claude Opus 5 might be released next week.
The post also mentioned a worst-case scenario: if the new version's pricing increases similarly to Sonnet 5.0, the cost of Opus 5 could be 2 times that of Opus 4.8. This is currently just rumor and speculation, not an official confirmation.
