will this support an NVMe SSD?

yes it has 2 slots, refer to the 4th picture which shows these slots. this motherboard includes covers for these devices

will this board come with the BIOS updated already for RYZEN 5000?

New stock boards should come with BIOS that supports Ryzen 5000. If you somehow end up with old stock you should be able to use the "BIOS flashback" feature to flash the latest BIOS before first boot even without an old CPU.

Does this board support the new Ryzen CPU's that just got announced today?

Yes this unit is approved for ALL of the new CPUs announced by AMD today up to and including the 5950X.
