“While I don’t have details to share on timing, when it’s available, Office 365 subscribers will automatically get the next Office for Mac at no additional cost.” “The team is hard at work on the next version of Office for Mac,” she said in an email. It wouldn’t confirm a specific release date in the statement, but it said Office 365 subscribers will get the update for free:Ī representative for Microsoft confirmed that development work for the next version of Office for Mac is ongoing. Macworld was able to get a comment from Microsoft confirming that development of a new version of Office for Mac is underway.
The news apparently came straight from a Microsoft representative at the Cebit trade show in Hanover, Germany who told the publication to expect a new version by the end of 2014 and more news in the second quarter of the year. The update would be the first major release of Office for Mac since Office Mac 2011 released almost four years ago.
According to a new report from Computerwoche ( via Macworld), Microsoft representatives have apparently confirmed that a new version of Office for Mac will arrive this year.
