The Minecraft Caves and Cliffs update planned to be released this year was divided into two parts. With the first part already released, the developers are working hard on the next one. Testing new features is essential, and after doing so themselves, they let the community try them.
Minecraft beta updates come with a few, if not all, features of the upcoming update. The developers have released another beta today, and it can be installed on Windows 10, Xbox One, and Android devices.
