The OPC UA driver does not work properly with newer Allen Bradley compactlogix controller (L30/L33 Firmware version 20). The issue has been reported to Tech support. I would like to know the expected date for release of new OPCUA-AB driver to correctly handle the data retrieval from newer AB controllers

We’ll try to keep you and this thread updated when we know. I believe the developer who will be implementing that has been on vacation this week.

Both Ignition 7.4 and 7.5 Betas include support for 1769-LxxER processors.

Is the latest version of Ignition (7.5.3) available on your website compatible with newer AB controllers or do I still need to download the beta version of OPC UA driver?

Yes, 7.5.3 should have the compatibility that is mentioned earlier by Tom in this thread.
