This is a bit of an odd release, no? I did not see an advance announcement of the date, there is no feature in the Mac App Store indicating that the OS is now available (though there is one for Apple Arcade), and until a moment ago, clicking "How to Upgrade" on the Apple site still led to a link to Mojave.

I'd assume the reason it's not advertised on the Mac App Store is because OS updates are now done through System Preferences.

It's in the Mac App Store for me, but not as the marquee product at the moment.

I've suspected that notifications of upgrade opportunities and advertising of new versions may track with Apple's desire to pace rollout. For example, I'd be surprised if they hit every available device with the upgrade notification about ios 13 given 13.1 would be available only days later.
