Like Microsoft Office’s updated icons, the colours reflect simplicity and modernity for the browser, giving it a new look that moves away from its Internet Explorer history.

According to The Verge, the icon was revealed in Canary, an early-testing platform for new features in Edge, and will likely be released with Microsoft’s upcoming Edge Chromium browser.

The new browser is currently available to download in beta.
