How to Install Minecraft 1.21 Release Candidate 1
Installing Minecraft 1.21 Release Candidate 1 on Java Edition is as easy as can be! Below, we have detailed the three steps every player will need.
- First, open the Minecraft Launcher and enable snapshots under the “Installations” tab.
- Second, click “New Installation” and then “Latest Snapshot” in the drop-down menu.
- Third, click “Create,” and the new release candidate installation will be a selectable option before clicking “Play.”
With that, the setup is complete! But remember, updates can corrupt old worlds. Ensure backups have been taken!
