I just updated Teams to 1.4.00.22472 this morning, and it seems to have reverted a couple of features? Meetings no longer open in a new window, and the option in Settings to use the "new features" is gone, so I can't enable it. Also, the UI for screen sharing when in a call is back to the old one from a few months ago, so it feels like something has been reverted by mistake? I tried uninstalling Teams all together and reinstalling, and I'm definitely back with 1.4.00.22472.

I am experiencing the same issue.
All meetings now open directly in the main client and not in a separate window.
I don't see a setting that allows me to change this functionality.

I second everything ProducerMarc said. My experience is the same.
And if you go to the "What's new..." section in Teams there was obviously an update on Sept 17 which aligns with when this issue started for me, though no mention of a new meeting experience.

1.4.00.23665 (64-bit)
@ProducerMarc You can always force a version upgrade, it's just not a supported method if you run into any other issue. But you'll pop back to your update ring the next auto-update.
Look at these URLs for ex. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ItzLevvie/MicrosoftTeams-msinternal/master/defconfig

Very odd indeed.
@ProducerMarc Try this: Remove Teams via control panel - programs (look for the installer too and remove as well)
Then delete the content in these locations and reinstall.
