The Minecraft Beta program has been a staple of the game’s testing process for over a decade. Java Edition has its own testing branch or experimental stage that is released in the form of various “Snapshot” versions of the game. This is then followed by the “pre-release” system, which goes over the game one last time before the official update or patch is released.The game’s Bedrock Edition, however, has always depended on the beta program to identify and reveal any bugs, glitches, inconsistencies, or absences it may find within the game. Up until now, players have had to install the Beta program into their existing copy of Minecraft Bedrock.Josh Mulanax@JORAX79Happy Wednesday!
