Prusa have just released details of their new flagship FDM printer named the Prusa XL which is a CoreXY printer. Now open for pre-orders which requires a 10% deposit with the first units shipping in Q2/Q3 2022 assuming there are no manufacturing issues or delays. The total cost is starts at ~$2000 USD plus tax and shipping for an XL that comes supplied with a single tool head all the way up to ~$3500 USD plus tax and shipping for an XL that comes supplied with the complete set of 5 tool heads, so I think it will probably be out of reach for anyone but the most hardcore of 3D printing hobbyists and some of the professionals who do 3D printing for a living.
It's too expensive for me and I don't have the space for something this big anyway, so for now I'll just stick with my trusty i3 MK3S
