Adblock Plus extension 'coming soon' for Microsoft Edge

Adblock Plus has announced that it will release a browser extension for Microsoft Edge. There aren't any details other than the popular ad-blocker will be "coming soon." However, that may indeed be pretty soon given the accidental teaser page that recently appeared on Microsoft's website.

Microsoft had originally intended for browser extensions to appear in Edge alongside the November update, but the feature was pushed back to 2016. From the recent teaser, which has since been pulled, it looks like some other big name extensions are headed for Edge as well, including Pinterest and Reddit Enhancement Suite. And it shouldn't be too long after launch before we see many others due to the ability for developers to easily port Chrome extensions to Edge.
