Trivia

 * This is the first non-snapshot Java Edition version to have more than 3 digits on the version number since Beta 1.7_01 in June 2011.
 * With this revision, 1.7 became the first Java Edition version to roll from single-digit to double-digit revision numbers since Alpha v1.0.10 four years prior.
 * Despite being extremely outdated, this version has a disproportionately large amount of mods available. However, the majority of such mods have either been updated to Java Edition 1.12.2 or unofficial ports have been created of said mods by others for said version.
 * The addition of models and block states internal changes in the game engine in 1.8 and the long waiting time for 1.9 has contributed to this situation.
