Get the Pre-Release
For those eager to explore these updates, the Pre-Releases are exclusively available for Minecraft: Java Edition. To install, simply open the Minecraft Launcher and enable snapshots within the “Installations” tab. However, a word of caution: testing versions can corrupt your world, so it’s advisable to back up your data or run them in a separate folder from your main worlds.
As part of the ongoing enhancements, players can also access a non-obfuscated experimental version of this snapshot. Here’s how:
- Download the provided zip file.
- Unpack the folder into your “versions” directory within your local Minecraft application data folder.
- Start (or restart) the Launcher.
- Create a new launch installation and select the “1.21.11 Pre-Release 5 Unobfuscated” version.
- Launch the game, and the remaining files will be downloaded automatically.
An unobfuscated server jar is also available for those interested in further experimentation.
If you encounter any bugs or wish to provide feedback, your input is invaluable to the ongoing development process.
