The beta snapshots cadence allows us to better measure the overall stability and quickly catch regressions, especially when a lot of features are worked on at the same time. This beta includes quite a few big changes which may interest a lot of users: Add support for Unicode identifiers in GDScript and Expression ( GH-71676 ).
