Yes, it is official now and Skype 4 comes with great features like full screen video calling and built-in bandwidth manager to ensure the quality of the call even on low internet bandwidth.
Skype 4.0 comes with with enhanced voice and call quality and was built after getting feedbacks from millions of customers. Skype-to-Skype calls, video calls and instant messaging are free like the earlier versions of Skype and there are no changes in that. Now Skype has slashed the prices for calls to landlines and mobile across the globe and now you can call unlimited* to 36 countries with subscription options. There is no new version for Skype Mac or Skype for Linux and Skype 4 is only for windows.
Please see the new features of Skype 4 listed below,
