Yes, Tor Browser 6.0 is now in development! It aims to be one of the biggest updates in the history of the project, and it also appears that the development team behind the Tor Project decided that it is time to finally drop the development of the 5.x branch, which had five maintenance builds until today. The hardened version of Tor Browser 6.0 Alpha 1 was also released.
