How do you change the new tab page?

You can set which page to open on startup, but you can't seem to override the page that shows when a new tab is created.

Do extensions from the chrome web store work? If so, there are many extensions for swapping out the new tab page there.

Yes, they do. Just hit a toggle to "allow extensions from other stores" in the Extensions settings and then you can install directly from the Chrome store pages.

It's just strange that Chrome allows you to change the new tab page but Edge doesn't.
