The current version is the SharePoint 2016 Release Candidate. A release date for the RTM version has not been announced. See: SharePoint Server 2016 and Project Server 2016 Release Candidate available.
See: Hardware and software requirements for SharePoint Server 2016
UPDATE:
Based on the comments below I have to revise the first answer:
- SharePoint Server 2016 went RTM on March 14 however it will not be generally available until sometime in May (probably May 4). See: SharePoint 2016 RTM and the Future of SharePoint event

Yes, RTM was released March 14th: blogs.office.com/2016/03/14/… and the trial can be downloaded from microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=51493, but you can't buy it until early May (probably May 4th) Commented Mar 23, 2016 at 16:32

You'll find out more in May at Bill Baer's webinar on May 4th. See https://vts.inxpo.com/Launch/QReg.htm?ShowKey=30784&AffiliateData=MechanicsBlog for registration.
SharePoint Server 2016 does not support SQL Server 2012, but does support Windows Server 2012 R2. It does support SQL Server 2014, and on RTM, SQL Server 2016.
