The update version is listed as 1.0, and the date published is June 9. Several files are available to download, with specific files containing drivers for select Surface devices. From Microsoft (via Reddit):

This firmware and driver package contains drivers for all of the components in the Surface Dock 2, as well as updates to the system firmware that have been released via Windows Update. These drivers and firmware are compatible with Windows 10, including Enterprise versions. The driver MSI files include all of the drivers and firmware needed to deploy custom images of Windows on your Surface devices.

For home users, it’s likely you’re already receiving updates via Windows Update. These packages are mainly meant for PCs that are using a Surface Dock and aren’t connected to the internet. It also gives IT managers more control over what is installed on specific systems they’ve deployed.
