I read about the new Aperture update to version 3.5 but it does not appear in regular software updates. When I found it in the App Store it is listed at $79.99. I already own Aperture and currently have version 3.4.5. I understood this to be a free update.
It is free. Have you already upgraded to OS 10.9? Is Aperture in the Applications folder, at its root level, and not renamed in any way?

It is a free update, most users are getting it without a problem however some users seem to be having difficulty.
First thing the update is only for system running Mavericks. HA=ave you upgraded the OS yet?
If you have is Aperture installed in the systems Applications folder and named Aperture. These two points are important for Software Update to do its thing.
Have you tun Software Update and update from the Mac App Store. In my case it did not show up in the App Store until I had updated from 3.4.5 to 3.5.
Some users have had success getting the upgrade by uninstalling Aperture, reinstalling from their original media and then running Software Update. Remember if you try this you will need your serial numbers for Aperture so make sure you have them before trying it.
I have an older MacPro 1,1 that can't run Mavericks. I didn't realize the update was for OSX 10.9 only.

You will not miss much; it is mainly a compatibility update for Mavericks's new features, like symmetric shared Photo Streams. If you cannot upgrade to Mavericks, there is not much you'll miss anyway.
Can't update Aperture from version 3.4.5 to 3.5 without paying full price.
