As the developers have returned from their much-needed vacation, development for the next Minecraft update has once again begun. After releasing a fantastic Caves & Cliffs Part II update, Mojang is now working on The Wild Update to improve some old biomes, add new features, and more.

Bedrock Edition has already received some new features that are available in beta versions. Mojang recently released a new Bedrock beta 1.18.10.27. Unlike the previous few betas, the latest version hardly brings fewer additions and focuses on quality of life improvements.

Interested players can test all the improvements by downloading Bedrock beta 1.18.10.27.

To download Bedrock version 1.18.10.27, one must be a beta tester. Beta testers have access to work in progress features and can report bugs and issues found in beta versions.

Before signing up for beta testing, Bedrock players should know the following:

  • Joining the beta testing program will replace Minecraft with a work-in-progress version.
  • Beta testers cannot access Realms nor play with non-beta players on multiplayer servers.
  • Worlds loaded in the beta cannot be played in older versions. Players can access them in the latest version or future official updates.
  • Features available in beta versions can be stable and do not represent the final quality of an update.
  • Lastly, beta versions are only available on Android, Xbox One, and Windows 10.

After testing beta versions, players can always switch back to the official stable version. Follow these steps to become a tester and download beta version 1.18.10.27:
