+## 2023-10-17, Version 21.0.0 (Current), @RafaelGSS and @targos
+
+We're excited to announce the release of Node.js 21! Highlights include updates of the V8 JavaScript engine to 11.8,
+stable `fetch` and `WebStreams`, a new experimental flag to change the interpretation of ambiguous code
+from CommonJS to ES modules (`--experimental-default-type`), many updates to our test runner, and more!
+
+Node.js 21 will replace Node.js 20 as our ‘Current’ release line when Node.js 20 enters long-term support (LTS) later this month.
+As per the release schedule, Node.js 21 will be ‘Current' release for the next 6 months, until April 2024.
