Arena Gives 72 Hour Free Access to GPT-Image-2.5 Sunburst, No 1 in 3 Arenas

OpenAI's latest image generator is available for free in Direct Mode on the Arena platform until Sept. 13 at 8 a.m. PT. This period allows users to select the GPT-Image-2.5 Sunburst model by name to test its capabilities before it returns to an anonymous state. The tool holds the No. 1 ranking in the platform's Text-to-Image, Image Edit, and Multi-Image Edit categories.

Following the expiration of the free window, the model will remain available through Battle and Agent Mode. These interfaces keep model identities hidden to ensure that user votes for leaderboard rankings remain unbiased. The system was released by OpenAI to provide increased precision and control for detailed creative workflows.
