+0.25.0 (2024-07-02)
+===================
+
+Deprecation Notes
+-----------------
+
+- The ``optimization_level`` option in ``EstimatorV2`` is deprecated.
+  Instead, you can perform circuit optimization using the Qiskit transpiler or Qiskit transpiler service. (`1748 <https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit-ibm-runtime/pull/1748>`__)
+- :meth:`qiskit_ibm_runtime.RuntimeJobV2.interim_results`, :meth:`qiskit_ibm_runtime.RuntimeJobV2.stream_results`,
+  :meth:`qiskit_ibm_runtime.RuntimeJob.interim_results`, and :meth:`qiskit_ibm_runtime.RuntimeJob.stream_results`
+  are now all deprecated. (`1776 <https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit-ibm-runtime/pull/1776>`__)
+
+
+New Features
+------------
+
+- Added ``backend``, ``backends``, and ``least_busy`` methods to ``QiskitRuntimeLocalService``. (`1764 <https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit-ibm-runtime/pull/1764>`__)
+- Added an ``instance`` property to :class:`BaseRuntimeJob` which returns the instance
+  where the job was run. (`1771 <https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit-ibm-runtime/pull/1771>`__)
+- ``default_shots`` are now a supported option when using ``EstimatorV2`` in 
+  local testing mode. (`1773 <https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit-ibm-runtime/pull/1773>`__)
