As the release info says, for Firefox, "Review pending".
As soon as the new version is available after review, it is offered automatically, or one can go to Firefox/ Extensions/ Manage extensions/ Tools for all add-ons (cogwheel)/ Check for Updates, to get the new version offered.

Correct, automatic updates only for Firefox and forks, probably the same for Chromium-based browser.

For the upcoming uBO version updates, I will try to remember, including also the part "Review pending" from the release notes...

There is some progress in transferring the Edge version of uBlock Origin from Nicole Ashley to Raymond Hill:

Edge Addons is still an old version · uBlockOrigin uBlock-issues · Discussion #3641

Even though uBlock Origin has reached version 0.64.0, edge addons are still old.

I'm glad it finally happened. But sadly, the MV2 version is probably going to stop working when Edge reaches version 139.

It still runs on Chrome Canary v 139.XX, but the writing is on the wall.
