The new Outlook was outlined under Microsoft's 'One Outlook' plan, with testing starting in 2022.[3] In September 2023, Microsoft started transitioning users of the previous apps to the new Outlook.[4] It was released on the Microsoft Store that month, although it remains in preview status.[5]

Outlook for Windows is based on Outlook on the web, and builds on it with features like multiple accounts including from non-Microsoft services.[4] It still has some features from Microsoft Outlook (which Microsoft refer to as Classic Outlook in this context[6]) missing like .pst files.[5]
