Updated on Mar 15, 2023 at 02:48 IST

The Bedrock Edition of Minecraft has received a new update, version 1.19.70. While the update addresses similar issues to Java Edition’s 1.19.4 patch, it also introduces fixes and tweaks specific to the Bedrock edition.

The update includes new features, such as Trials & Tales experimental content, revamped horse breeding, and fixes for over 30 community-reported bugs. Players eager to experience these changes are advised to update their Bedrock version as soon as possible.

Updating the game will differ depending on the platform being used. However, most platforms handle updates automatically, with minimal effort required on the player’s part. Minecraft has released a statement on its official website clarifying that the 1.19.70 update is not yet available for Nintendo Switch, but is still coming soon.

   2. If there are no updates found, select the game on your dashboard or library, press your options button, and choose “check for update.”
5. Nintendo Switch (when available):
   1. Open the game from the dashboard, and the console will attempt to update the game before opening it if an update is available.
