Too Fast: Google recently announced an accelerated Chrome release schedule. Now, another major player in the browser market, Mozilla, is doing the same. The company plans to drop two updates for its open-source browser every month across both desktop and Android devices. The new roadmap is expected to begin in September 2026, although Mozilla could change course if unexpected issues arise.
Mozilla Director Sylvestre Ledru confirmed that Firefox will soon adopt a faster release cadence, but said the accelerated release schedule should be considered an "experiment" for now. The final monthly release will be Firefox 154, which is currently scheduled for August 18. After that, Firefox 155 will arrive on September 1 instead of two weeks later. As a result, Mozilla has completely overhauled the Firefox Release Calendar to accommodate the new bi-weekly schedule.
Ledru said the faster release cadence will allow Mozilla developers to ship more "work" on the browser more frequently. Meanwhile, the release process itself should become more predictable, with fewer obstacles affecting rollout plans. Developers will not need to work twice as fast, however, as half-baked features will still (hopefully) receive the additional attention they need.
