So, that happened.
I'm just reading through the official release notes, so what's new?
Saga - new enchantment subtype with pretty complex rules.
Legendary Sorcery - on Sorceries, supertype Legendary means that you need to control a legendary creature or planeswalker, otherwise they can't be cast.
Historic - new term that covers Legendary cards, artifacts and Sagas; probably should be defined for Forge.
Kicker - but apparently no new keyword mechanics.
Planeswalker redirection - removed from the game (exiled), replaced by massive errata of over 700 cards. Probably should be kept until Gatherer update.
Some rules text changes: mana abilities are simplified (no more "to your mana pool"), "he or she" is replaced by "they" - more massive errata.
