Minecraft Preview

Minecraft Preview is an application players can use to test out beta features from Bedrock Edition. It works as a separate application, rather than the previous system of opt-in beta content inside of the Bedrock Edition game itself.

As of now, it is currently available for limited users on iOS/iPadOS devices, and on Xbox. It will also be released on Windows 10 and Windows 11 within a few weeks.

Development
On January 31, 2022, it was announced that the beta program would be expanded to other platforms, starting with iOS and iPadOS, in the form of Minecraft Preview app, separate from the normal Bedrock Edition app. The initial iOS launch was only limited to 500 users on TestFlight, which was later expanded by adding 500 more later on.

Later on February 7, 2022, Minecraft Preview was released for Xbox players via Xbox Insider Hub first, to test the migration of player worlds to the new app. The testing period was divided into two phases, for which users who don't own Minecraft can participate in, before it is officially released only to those who have bought Minecraft on Xbox.

iOS/iPadOS
