In 2018, the UK Government announced that it intended to expand the brigade by more than 800 posts, with the Queen's Gurkha Engineers receiving an additional squadron, while the Queen’s Gurkha Signals and the Queen's Own Gurkha Logistic Regiment will receive two new squadrons. Additionally, approximately 300 new posts within the Royal Gurkha Rifles will be created forming a new battalion planned for the Specialist Infantry role.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.janes.com/article/81826/uk-to-recruit-more-gurkha-soldiers |title=UK to recruit more Gurkha soldiers |last=Ripley |first=Tim |date=18 July 2018|website=Jane's 360 |access-date=20 July 2018 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://ukarmedforcescommentary.blogspot.com/2016/08/good-news-and-confirmation-of-bad-habit.html |title=Good news and a confirmation of a bad habit |last=Molinelli |first=Gabriele |date=4 August 2016 |website=UK Armed Forces Commentary |access-date=20 July 2018 }}</ref> In 2018, it was announced that from 2020, female applicants would be able to apply to join the Gurkhas.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-44844438 |title=Gurkhas to recruit women for first time from 2020 |date=16 July 2018 |website=BBC News |access-date=20 July 2018 }}</ref> However, this decision was reversed in 2019.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.nepalitimes.com/banner/girl-gurkhas/|title=Girl Gurkhas|publisher=Nepali Times|date=23 July 2019|access-date=24 November 2020}}</ref>

In April 2025, the UK government announced a further increase by creating a new artillery regiment within the brigade, bearing the name the King's Gurkha Artillery. As with other Gurkha units affiliated to the support arms and services, the King's Gurkha Artillery will have its own unique cap badge combining elements that illustrate its Gurkha heritage and the heritage of its parent unit, in this case the [[Royal Artillery]]. The creation of the King's Gurkha Artillery will mark the first time that Gurkhas have served in the [[artillery]] role in the British Army.<ref>{{Cite web |title=New King’s Gurkha Artillery Unit to boost Armed Forces Capabilities |url=https://www.gov.uk/government/news/new-kings-gurkha-artillery-unit-to-boost-armed-forces-capabilities |access-date=2025-04-28 |website=GOV.UK |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2025-04-28 |title=New 400-strong King's Gurkha Artillery regiment announced in front of MPs |url=https://www.forcesnews.com/services/gurkhas/new-400-strong-kings-gurkha-artillery-regiment-announced |access-date=2025-04-28 |website=www.forcesnews.com |language=en}}</ref>
