About this release
This package carries both recent perpetual lines of the office suite in a single installer, so one download covers a mixed estate of machines. At setup you choose which release to deploy, which architecture, and which applications to include, and the installer pulls the right payload from the package.
The newer line is the one to pick for most machines. Excel gets the current function set with dynamic arrays, XLOOKUP and the newer text and array functions, Word and PowerPoint carry the refreshed interface with proper dark mode, and the whole suite matches the visual language of current Windows. The older line is still here for machines with add-ins or macros that have not been tested against the newer build.
Everything is the professional plus configuration, so Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Access and Publisher are all present. Forty interface and proofing languages are included, and both architectures are in the package. The deployment configuration files are prepared for silent installation across several machines without touching each one by hand.

One download for a mixed office, exactly what I needed. Deployed both lines from the same stick.
