It will not get updates, unlike the current version.
Windows 96 v1 is the last "classic" version of Windows 96 released on the 15th of August 2019.
It's dubbed as the last classic version due to a total rewrite that occurred between Windows 96 v1 and v2. The rewrite made Windows 96 v1 apps completely incompatible with 2.0 due to a different architecture and API set.
It can still be found at https://rel1.windows96.net.
