I don't think there's a set schedule. I think the last time was in the 80's.

Re: How often do new hymns get added?
If you're wondering about the new hymnal, Hymns—For Home and Church – the first batch of new songs was published digitally in May 2024, in four languages (English, Spanish, Portuguese, and French). It's been announced that there will be batches every few months, with the next batch coming in September 2024 (see this Deseret News article), but none of the announcements so far have been more specific about the digital pre-release schedule. The full book is expected to come in 2026. Languages beyond the first four will have a staggered release schedule, with about 50 languages having the full book by 2030.
