+## What's Happening
+
+### PowerToys Roadmap
+
+Our [prioritized roadmap][roadmap] of features and utilities that the core team is focusing on.
+
+### 0.94 - Sep 2025 Update
+
+In this release, we focused on new features, stability, optimization improvements, and automation.
+
+For an in-depth look at the latest changes, visit the [release blog](https://aka.ms/powertoys-releaseblog).
+
+**✨Highlights**
 
  - PowerToys Settings added a Settings search with fuzzy matching, suggestions, a results page, and UX polish to make finding options faster.
  - A comprehensive hotkey conflict detection system was introduced in Settings to surface and help resolve conflicting shortcuts. Note that the default hotkey settings (Win+Ctrl+Shift+T, Win+Ctrl+V, Win+Ctrl+T, Win+Shift+T) may overlap with existing Windows system shortcuts. This is expected. You can resolve the conflict by assigning different hotkeys.
