The 'Beta' Channel build is missing as of now, but its badge hints that it is coming soon. The official preview builds of the Chromium-based Microsoft Edge browser are available for Windows 10 only. The company promises to contribute more to the Chromium project.
Microsoft has already made a number of contributions to the Chromium project, helping to port the project to Windows on ARM.
