+## [3.3] - TBD
+
+See the [release announcement](TBD) for details.
+
+### Added
+
+#### Audio
+
+- [MP3 loading and playback support](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/43007).
+- [Add AudioEffectCapture to access the microphone in real-time](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/45593).
+
+#### Build system
+
+- [Add `production=yes` option to set optimal options for production builds](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/45593).
+  - Users making custom builds should use this option which is equivalent to `use_lto=yes debug_symbols=no use_static_cpp=yes`.
+  - **Note for Linux builds:** `use_static_cpp=yes` and `udev=yes` are now the default values, so you need `libudev` and `libstdc++-static` development packages to build in optimal conditions.
+
+#### Core
+
+- [New dynamic BVH](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/44901) for rendering and the GodotPhysics backends.
+  - If you experience a regression in either physics or rendering, you can try [these Project Settings](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/44901#issuecomment-758618531) to revert back to the previous Octree-based approach and possibly fix the issue. In either case, be sure to report the problem on GitHub.
+- [Ability to restore RandomNumberGenerator state](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/45019).
+- [TileMap `show_collision` property to show/hide collision shapes in the editor and at run-time](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/46623).
+- [`Array.append_array()` method to append an array at the end of another array](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/43398).
+- [`OS.get_thread_caller_id()` method to print the ID of the thread the code is currently running on](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/44732).
+- [`application/run/flush_stdout_on_print` project setting](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/44393) to enable per-line flushing of the standard output stream in release builds.
+- [`Image.load_bmp_from_buffer()` method to load BMP images at run-time](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/42947).
+
+#### Editor
+

+
+#### Rendering
+
+- [2D batching for GLES3](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/42119) (it was implemented for GLES2 in 3.2.2), and improvements to GLES2's batching.
+- [New software skinning for MeshInstance](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/40313) to replace the slow GPU skinning on devices that don't support the fast GPU skinning (especially mobile).
+- [Configurable amount of lights per object](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/43606), now defaulting to 32 instead of 8.
+- [New CPU lightmapper](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/44628).
+  - Uses a raytracing approach with optional denoising.
+  - Environment lighting is now supported.
+  - Lightmaps are now stored in an atlas when baking if GLES3 is the current backend at the time of baking.
+  - Bicubic lightmap sampling is now used to improve the final appearance, both in GLES3 and GLES2. It's enabled by default on desktop platforms.
+- [Anisotropic filtering now works when using the GLES2 backend](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/45654).
+- [FXAA property in Viewport and associated project setting for GLES3 and GLES2](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/42006).
+  - Upsides: Faster than MSAA, smooths out alpha-tested materials and specular aliasing.
+  - Downsides: Lower quality than MSAA and makes the 3D viewport blurrier.
+- [Debanding property in Viewport and associated project setting for GLES3](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/42942).
+  - Significantly reduces visible banding in 3D. The effect is mainly visible on smooth gradients, solid surfaces and in heavy fog.
+  - Only effective when HDR is enabled in the Project Settings (which is the default).
+- [New `METALLIC` built-in for the `light()` function in the shader language](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/42548).
+
+### Changed
+
+#### Core
+

+- [Tweaked log file names for consistency between Mono and non-Mono builds](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/44148).
+
+#### Editor
+
+- [Improved inspector subresource editing visibility](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/45907).
+- [Improved the 3D selection box appearance for better visibility](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/43424).
+  - The 3D selection box color can be changed in the Editor Settings.
+- [Increased default opacity for 3D manipulator gizmos for better visibility](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/44384).
+- [Improved visibility for the dashed line in the TextureRegion editor](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/45164).
+- [Pressed CheckButtons are now colored in blue for easier recognition](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/44556).
+- [The autokeying icon in the animation editor is now red when pressed to emphasize its "recording" status](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/42417).
+- [Scroll bars are now thicker and have a subtle background to better hint where they start and stop](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/47633).
+- [Undo/redo log messages now give more context when performing actions in the 2D editor](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/42229).
+- [The editor now uses 75% scaling by default on small displays (such as 1366×768)](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/43611).
+  - This can be reverted by setting the editor scale to 100% in the Editor Settings.
+- [The editor now uses 150% scaling by default on 4K monitors, regardless of their DPI](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/45910).
+  - This can be adjusted by setting the editor scale to the desired value in the Editor Settings.
+- [Rename Node is now bound to <kbd>F2</kbd>](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/38201).
+  - To account for this change, switching between editors using keyboard shortcuts now requires holding down <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>.
+  - Editor shortcuts can be changed back to the previous values in the Editor Settings' Shortcuts tab.
+- [Changed the Search Help shortcut from <kbd>Shift + F1</kbd> to <kbd>F1</kbd>](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/43773).
+- [Changed the FileSystem dock Copy Path shortcut from <kbd>Ctrl + C</kbd> to <kbd>Ctrl + Shift + C</kbd>](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/43397).
+- [Changed 3D editor's Primary Grid Steps setting from 10 to 8](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/43754).
+  - This uses a power-of-two value by default.
+- [Increased the default `profiler_frame_max_functions` to 512](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/43697).
+  - This fixes many instances where functions didn't appear in the script profiler.
+- [The inspector now allows using a comma as a decimal separator](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/42376).
+- [Editor plugins are now searched for recursively](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/43734).
+- [Increased the page size for array/dictionary editors in the inspector from 10 to 20](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/44864).
+  - The value can now be increased further in the Editor Settings at the cost of slower node switching times in the inspector.
+- [The "Auto" editor setting hints for editor scale and font hinting now display the value they apply](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/45270).
+- [Tweaked property hints for SpatialMaterial depth properties to allow greater control and quality](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/44130).
+- [Pause Mode and Script are no longer collapsed in categories in the inspector](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/43566).
+- **Asset library:** [The Retry button now only appears if the download has failed](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/46105).

+
+#### GUI
+
+- [Range now returns a ratio of 1.0 if the minimum and maximum value are equal](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/45220).
+- [The Control virtual method `_make_custom_tooltip()` should now return a `Control` instead of an `Object`.](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/43280)
+  - Scripts overriding this method will have to be updated.
+
+#### Import
+
+- [glTF import now uses vertex colors by default](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/41007).
+- [Fix ETC compressor `lossy_quality` handling](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/44682).
+  - High `lossy_quality` values will now incur significantly longer compression times, but will also improve the resulting texture quality.
+
+#### Mono (C#)
+
+- [The `copy_mono_root` SCons build option now defaults to `yes`](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/42332).

+
+#### Networking
+
+- [Increase the default HTTPClient download chunk size to 64 KiB](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/42896).
