Minecraft players around the world recently got access to Part 2 of the 1.18 Caves and Cliffs update, an update that massively changes Minecraft worlds and caves. It’s already time for gamers to line up for another update, as Mojang Studios is now starting to release Minecraft: Bedrock Edition 1.18.1.
This is a simple patch update with a small batch of fixes for the Caves and Cliffs update, but there are some significant tweaks like changing the diamond ore generation to match Minecraft: Java Edition, fixed crashes on Android devices, and fixed a movement issue after respawning or sleeping in a bed. Minecraft: Bedrock Edition 1.18.1 is currently only available on PlayStation devices, but will be rolling out to all other Bedrock Edition platforms over the next few days, likely ending over the weekend.
Minecraft is one of the greatest games ever made and maintains its title as one of the best Xbox games by continually evolving with new features and content. The Wild update, which will be released in 2022, will update Minecraft’s Overworld with new mobs, blocks and more. Over time, we will inevitably see more parts of The Wild Update tested in Minecraft betas and snapshots like Minecraft: Bedrock Edition Beta 1.18.10.21.
In case you missed it, here are all the changes and additions in Part 2 of the 1.18 Caves and Cliffs update.
