Minecraft 26.3 Pre-Release 2
Two pre-releases in one week!? That's right! Now that we're in the pre-release phase, we're no longer following our regular snapshot schedule. This also means we're spending more time hunting bugs as we get things ready for release, and this pre-release is no exception. Hope you brought your bug spray!
Happy Mining!
