Does anyone maybe have the HQ wallpaper that was shown in the promo videos for the new Windows 11 features from Oct 2026 (as seen here)? Attached is a screengrab from one of the videos:

I tried image search, found nothing. Tried AI enhancement, but it's not the really same...

Thanks in advance!

It appears in their official communication so I would say yes

It's been leaked recently. Here is the link for the original one from Microsoft's servers.

Tysm, may I know where you got this from though?

Why does Microsoft makes so much beautiful wallpapers for windows 11 and only includes like 5 in the os

I also have to admit, the wallpapers are beautiful, and you can see the full collection here https://microsoft.design/wallpapers

Oh, It's giving Windows 95 clouds vibes...

Looks kinda neat

Did some extensive reverse image searching using my cropped version of this to get rid of the taskbar and the original image does not appear anywhere. Only this exact screenshot or close. Tried google, bing, and Yandex. And various reverse image searching tools. There seems to be no original source.
Maybe in that update, this wallpaper will be included.

Dark mode version of this would rock
