What you need to know

  • Minecraft 1.19 "The Wild Update" has officially released to all players on Bedrock and Java Editions.
  • This hasn't stopped Mojang Studios from dropping Minecraft Preview 1.19.10.22 to test new fixes and improvements.
  • The first post-launch The Wild Update preview build includes a sizeable number of technical updates and bug fixes.

Players all around the world are leaping into Minecraft's The Wild Update, an expansive content update that brings plenty of new features into the ever-evolving survival creative sandbox. Those who ache to test the latest and most experimental features, however, aren't being left in the dark, as Mojang Studios is already rolling out the first post-launch The Wild Update Minecraft preview.

Minecraft 1.19 "The Wild Update" has been publicly available for barely one day, but Mojang Studios isn't slowing down the inexorable march of development. Minecraft Preview 1.19.10.22 is now available to testers on Xbox, Windows, and iOS (with a Minecraft: Bedrock Edition beta on Android), and brings a couple dozen bug fixes and changes to Minecraft's latest content release.

Minecraft didn't become one of the most successful Xbox games of all time with Mojang Studios resting on its laurels. The latest Minecraft Preview showcases improvements that should head to the rest of Minecraft players at some point in the future, if testing goes well.

In case you missed it, I interviewed Mojang Studios on Minecraft 1.19 "The Wild Update," the future of Minecraft, and more.
