The 33-year-old Brit was dethroned in Manchester the last time the UFC took place in the United Kingdom.
He was originally due to take on Australian Jack Della Maddalena who is unbeaten in his last 17 fights, winning 14 by stoppage.
However, the latter will instead take on Belal Muhammad for the welterweight title at UFC 315 - with American Sean Brady stepping in to face Edwards.
The 2025 UFC London event will take place on Saturday, March 22.
It will be held at The O2 Arena in London.
The preliminary card is set to start at around 4pm before the main card gets going at 7pm.
There is not a confirmed time for main event cage-walks but they can be expected between 10pm and 11pm.
UFC London will be available to watch on TNT Sports. More details on how to sign up to TNT Sports and Discovery+ can be found here.
