You can now add visual impact to titles and text with new tools in the Essential Graphics panel for adding gradients.. More info about text gradients here.
Caption items in the Captions track now have the same label color options as other items on the timeline.

Edit video files containing embedded captions more intuitively. Caption items are linked to their associated video and audio clips, making it easier to fine-tune edits and keep everything in sync on the Timeline. More info here.

Roger Averdahl AKA "Averdahl," is May's featured ACP for the Premiere Pro community. I wanted to personally thank him for all the contributions he's made over the years. Since 2006, he's engaged in over 2300 posts, with tons of solutions and "Likes," Roger has done it all on the community here, but what more can we know about the man, the myth, the legend! I wrote to Roger and asked him to tell us a bit more about himself.
"I live in Stockholm, Sweden so i live in ABBA and Volvo land. I started editing video 20 years ago and found out early that i like to solve problems and issues that arised during the edit. A couple of years later i worked seven years as reseller for professional video solutions, selling professional cameras and installing/configuring and test drive editing workstations and held courses in Adobe apps. Those years were a great learning experience when it comes to pinpoint issues in the chain, from camera to final export. I like to challenge myself with trying to help other people out and loves when a problem is solved. I love music and the power of music and played in a rockband many years and do still play the electric bass daily."
Pretty cool, Roger! Thanks for letting us know more about you. Thanks again for all your help, as well. The community really appreciates all you do!
