It’s that time of the year when we get to take a closer look at the new features and improvements of the next major release of KDE’s Plasma desktop environment, KDE Plasma 6.7, due out in June 2026.

Some of the biggest changes in KDE Plasma 6.7 include the ability to type characters that aren’t on your physical keyboard, a switch on the Plasma Panel to instantly go from light mode to dark mode, a global push-to-talk feature, and a full-featured print queue viewer app.

KDE Plasma 6.7 also introduces a dedicated setup UI for configuring shared printers on Windows networks, a new rounded style for selection highlights in Breeze-themed apps like Dolphin, Okular, and KMail, and support for installing custom sound themes from downloaded files.
