Minecraft players everywhere recently gained access to 1.18 Caves and Cliffs Update Part Two, an update that massively changes Minecraft’s worlds and caves. It’s already time for players to queue up another update, however, as Mojang Studios is now beginning 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 important tweaks like changing diamond ore generation to match Minecraft: Java Edition, fixing crashes on Android devices, and solving an issue with movement after respawning or sleeping in a bed. Minecraft: Bedrock Edition 1.18.1 is currently releasing only to PlayStation devices, but will roll out to all other Bedrock Edition platforms over the next few days, likely finishing over the weekend.
Minecraft is one of the greatest games ever made, and holds on to its title as one of the best Xbox games by continually evolving with new features and content. The Wild Update, releasing sometime during 2022, will update Minecraft’s Overworld with new mobs, blocks, and more. As time goes on, we’ll 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 1.18 Caves and Cliffs Update Part Two.
