Apple has been beta testing the new firmware for the last several weeks, but hasn't yet offered details on what's included in the software. Apple has an AirPods support document that it will update with information soon.
Firmware updates can be downloaded by connecting the AirPods to an Apple device and connecting them to power. It can take a few hours for new firmware to be installed because there is no software update option like there is for other Apple devices.
