The new version comes with 22 new nodes that were added to the Geometry Nodes editor expanding the attribute system, sampling textures, and support for volume data. It is also now possible to create mesh circles, cones, cubes, cylinders, grids, ICO-spheres, UV-spheres, and lines without leaving the Geometry Nodes editor.
User experience has also been improved, using Geometry Nodes is now much easier thanks to error reporting, search, and a new way to inspect your geometry.
