It is available for Windows, macOS and Linux, but Minecraft for Windows can be played only on Windows 10/11, and Minecraft Dungeons only on Windows 7+.

Features

The initial login screen

On the initial login screen, users must log in with a pre-existing Microsoft account, Mojang Studios account, or legacy Minecraft account, otherwise they can create a new Microsoft account by clicking the link. Subsequent logins can be done in the "Settings" tab.

On the left side, a "News" tab, a tab for each game, and the Minecraft Launcher "Settings" tab can be seen.

The top left corner of the Minecraft Launcher contains the user's currently active account name. If a Microsoft account is used, this is the player's Xbox Gamertag (which might differ from Minecraft: Java Edition username), otherwise it is the player's Java Edition username. By clicking on it, users can manage or log out of their active account, and see a "Help" page with various links to helpful sources.

Minecraft: Java Edition

The main "Play" section allows the user to download (if needed) and launch Minecraft: Java Edition with the "Play" button, and also includes an installation selection on the left (which sorts installations by last played), the user's Java Edition username on the right, and a list of the latest news for the game from minecraft.net below.

• One can launch multiple instances of the game by pressing the "Play" button whilst the game is running.
• If the device is not connected to the internet, the game can be run in offline mode, but only if the game has been initially downloaded.
• If the user isn't logged into an account that has purchased the game, the "Play" button appears as a "Play demo" button that downloads and launches the demo version of the game.

There is also a "Patch notes" section where the patch notes of the game's update can be seen, including the snapshots (if enabled).

Installations

Creating a new installation.

In the "Installations" section, Custom installations can be created and edited. There are buttons to sort and search installations, as well as checkboxes to enable installations with "Releases", "Snapshot", and "Modded" versions of the game. Installations are stored in launcher_profiles.json (or launcher_profiles_microsoft_store.json when using the new Minecraft Launcher for Windows) in the game's directory (.minecraft).

By default, there are installations for the "Latest release" and for "Latest snapshot" (if enabled), both of which the game versions cannot be changed. A new installation can be created by clicking the "New installation" button and an existing installation can be edited by clicking on it. There is a "Play" button that launches the selected installation and a folder icon that takes to the installation's game directory. The ellipses button contains the options to edit, duplicate, or delete an installation.

On the create/edit installation page, the following can be changed:

• Icon, by selecting one of the default ones or adding a custom one. Custom icons must be a .png and 128×128 pixels in size.
• Name, by default called "<unnamed installation>".
• Version, which includes access to older releases and snapshots (if enabled).
• Game directory, the location of where the game files are saved, the default being .minecraft. The location can be typed in or selected using the "Browse" button.
• Resolution, which changes the game's windows size. It has a list of resolutions, or a custom one can be typed in.
• Java executable, by default uses the bundled java runtime.
• JVM arguments, such as heap size.

Before, it was possible for the users to manually set a logging configuration (see Debugging on wiki.vg for more info), however this doesn't seem to work anymore.

A specific game version's server jar can also be downloaded by selecting the version in the list and pressing the "Server" button next to it.

Backward compatibility

Selecting older versions in the create new installation screen.

The Minecraft Launcher has the ability to play most older releases of the game (and older snapshots, if enabled) by default, but also some older versions prior to Release 1.0. In order to see these versions in the installations section, the player must enable "Show historical versions of Java Edition" in the Minecraft Launcher settings tab. Because these versions are outdated and unsupported, they may contain bugs and errors that are not present in newer versions. It is recommended to run old versions of the game in a separate directory and backup worlds to avoid save corruption or other problems.

Once historical versions are enabled, the following can be accessed:

• Most beta versions.
• Most alpha versions.
• One infdev version.
• Four classic versions.
• Five pre-classic versions.

Some issues with these older versions include:

• Some sounds are wrong; bows, doors, and explosions use their sounds from RC1, even in versions released prior to it. In versions before Alpha 1.1.2_01, sounds do not work at all.
• Skins are missing in versions prior to 1.7, as earlier versions used a different skin server, which has since been shut down. Capes may still work, however.
• In Alpha 1.0.15 and from Alpha 1.2.0 to Alpha 1.2.6, the Minecraft Launcher does not set the player's name properly, resulting in everyone using default names: "Player" followed by a random 3-digit number. This makes multiplayer difficult to play, as a player's location and inventory is reset every time they relaunch their client.

• In Alpha 1.2.5 and Alpha 1.2.6 specifically, players are always named "Player524". Playing multiplayer in these versions is impossible, as joining a server kicks off other players with the same name.

• As a side effect of the above, and as a result of old authentication servers being shut down, online mode no longer works in versions before Beta 1.8.

Skins

The skins section

In the "Skins" section, the user can view and change their in-game skin. By default, the skin is either Steve or Alex.

In the skins library, skin can be applied by clicking "Use". The skin can also be edited, duplicate, or delete by clicking the ellipsis button. By default, the library contains the default Steve and Alex skins, which can be duplicated or applied, but not removed.

Visiting this section without purchasing the game displays a button that redirects to the Minecraft: Java Edition store page.

Minecraft for Windows

The main "Play" section allows the user to download (if needed) and launch Minecraft for Windows (Bedrock Edition) with the "Play" button, and also includes the user's Xbox Gamertag on the right, and a list of the latest news for the game from minecraft.net below.

• If the device is not connected to the internet, the game can be run in offline mode, but only if the game has been initially downloaded.
• If the user is on an unsupported device, a warning appears with a link to a website with supported devices.
• If the user isn't logged into an account that has purchased the game, the "Play" button appears as a "Play demo" button that links the player to the Microsoft Store to download and launch the demo version of the game.

There is an "FAQ" section with frequently asked questions and answers about the Minecraft Launcher and Minecraft for Windows (Bedrock Edition), an "Installation" section to repair or uninstall the game, and a "Patch notes" section where the patch notes of the game's updates can be seen (not including beta versions).

Minecraft Dungeons

There are 5 tabs on the Minecraft Dungeons page: Play, DLC, FAQ, Installation, and Patch notes. (Only Play, DLC, and Patch notes are shown on an unsupported platform.)

Play

The default view of the Minecraft Dungeons section in the Minecraft Launcher.

The main "Play" section allows the user to download (if needed) and launch the latest version of Minecraft Dungeons with the "Play" button, and also includes images from the game and a list of the latest news articles from minecraft.net below. This section also contains a notice that the game can be purchased separately from the Microsoft Store for Windows. If the player is not playing on the supported platform, a small message on the bottom is shown that displays: Where is the play button?! Minecraft Dungeons isn't available on (platform).

DLC

The DLC tab on the Minecraft Dungeons page in the Minecraft Launcher.

There is a search bar and a filter option to narrow down the results when searching the DLCs. The bundle or/and the DLCs can be shown by checking the box.

Each DLC is shown in a card-like structure with the DLC info on the left and a cover image on the right. There is also a slideshow on the bottom of the card.

FAQ

The FAQ tab in Minecraft Dungeons on the Minecraft Minecraft Launcher.

The FAQ section is shown when pressing the FAQ tab. There is a list of troubleshooting sections and a link to the Help Center FAQ for Minecraft Dungeons.

Installation

Visiting this section without the game purchased displays a button that redirects to the Minecraft Dungeons buy page. If bought, it shows an uninstall button and a repair button.

Patch Notes

This section shows cards of the patch notes. Each card contains an image on top and the text below stating the name of the patch notes. When clicked, this displays the patch notes.

Settings

The "About" section in the Minecraft Launcher settings.

In the main "General" section, users can:

• Change the Minecraft Launcher language. There are 66 languages available, including 2 joke languages (as of February 2021).
• Use the beta version of the Minecraft Launcher, which requires restarting the launcher to start downloading if there is one available.
• Keep the Minecraft Launcher open while games are running.
• Enable animations in the Minecraft Launcher, which are disabled by default to avoid potential motion sickness for some users.
• Disable hardware acceleration.

Options exclusively for Minecraft: Java Edition:

• Open the output log when the game starts.
• Option to automatically send the game's crash reports to Mojang Studios.
• Show historical versions of the game (versions prior to Release 1.0) in the version selector in the Installations section.

In the "Accounts" section, users can add, switch, manage, or remove their Microsoft, Mojang Studios, or Legacy Minecraft accounts.

The "About" section contains details about the Minecraft Launcher including its version, credits, and third-party licenses, as well as a list of patch notes by clicking the "What's New?" button.

Command line usage

The Minecraft Launcher can be invoked using the command line by typing %Program Files (x86)%\Minecraft Launcher\MinecraftLauncher.exe in Windows or minecraft-launcher in either Mac or Linux.

The Help Message when using MinecraftLauncher.exe --help

As of version 2.2.25xx, the Minecraft Launcher has these command-line options available for Minecraft: Java Edition:

• --demo - This launches the demo version of the game, much like if the game hasn't been purchased yet.
• -h, --help - This option displays a help message on how to run it in the command line.
• --clean – This option deletes the "game" and "runtime" folders, including their contents, from the working directory.
• --launcherui - This option presents the login screen.
• -w, --workDir – This option, followed by a path (relative or absolute), changes the location (and/or name) of the .minecraft folder.
  • Can be used to create a portable installation of the game. For example, --workDir (or --workDir=.) can be used to make the Minecraft Launcher use the current directory (no matter what the current folder is called).
• --nativeLauncherVersion - .
• --tmpDir – This option, followed by a path (relative or absolute), changes the location (and/or name) of the tmp folder.
• -l, --lockDir- This option, followed by a path, restricts the installation directory to a specified folder.
• --winTen – This option adds support for Windows 10. Since the Minecraft Launcher now supports Windows 10 fully, this option is unnecessary and seems to have no effect.
• --proxyHost - This option changes where the host of the proxy is.
• --proxyPort - This option changes the default port from 80 to a custom one.
• --disableGPU - This disables GPU acceleration in the Minecraft Launcher, which might fix issues when playing minecraft.
• --debugGPU- This opens up a new window showing debug information, like "Graphic Feature Stats", which shows if Hardware acceleration is enabled on certain features, and an option to copy the content to the clipboard. These might be useful for troubleshooting purposes.

Uninstalling the Old Minecraft Unified Launcher

This applies only to players using Windows 10 or newer. Older versions of Windows are not able to use the new Minecraft Launcher for Windows. With the addition of a new launcher, you can uninstall the old launcher to remove any confusion between the two. For clarity, the new launcher is referred to as the "Minecraft Launcher for Windows" and the old launcher as the "Minecraft Unified Launcher".

How to uninstall the Minecraft Unified Launcher (old launcher):

1. Click the start menu in Windows (windows icon in the bottom left)
2. Type in "Add or remove programs" and click the top entry
3. Search for "Minecraft Launcher". The launcher to uninstall displays Mojang underneath the title "Minecraft Launcher".
4. Click the three dots shown to the left of the "Minecraft Launcher" title and select "Uninstall".

Now only one launcher should be installed. Run the Minecraft Launcher for Windows to ensure it still works; if it doesn't, reinstall using the Microsoft Store.

Launcher or game mods may need to be migrated or re-installed to the new Minecraft Launcher for Windows installation location before uninstalling the old launcher. Check with the mod developer for more detail.

The player is able to [[bed|sleep]] a few seconds after the clock shows exactly dusk. The dial always shows the current in-game time when in the [[Overworld]], regardless of where it appears. This includes a player's hand, an inventory slot, a [[Crafting table|crafting grid]], an [[item frame]], or even as a dropped [[Item (entity)|item]]. For a clock to be mounted on a wall, an [[item frame]] is required. Because there is no day/night cycle in [[the Nether]] or [[the End]], clocks do not work properly in these dimensions.

They always generate above [[magma cube]] spawners, also found in [[bastion]]s. Chains can also generate in [[mineshafts]]. They generate on the sides of a wooden bridge (a mid-air corridor) when the distance between the bridge and the highest solid block below it is higher than the distance to the lowest solid block above it. Chains here generate vertically in a pillar between the bridge and the ceiling. The lowest block of the pillar, connecting the chain to the bridge, is always an [[oak fence]]. === Chest loot === {{LootChestItem|chain}} === Crafting === {{Crafting |B1=Iron Nugget |B2=Iron Ingot |B3=Iron Nugget |Output=Chain |type=Building block }} == Usage == Chains can be used to suspend [[bell]]s, [[hanging sign]]s, or both types of [[lantern]]s (normal lanterns and soul lanterns), as the chain texture connects to the chain of the lantern seamlessly as if it were part of it, and it connects the hanging sign chains together. Chains do not require a supporting block to be placed whether it is on the top, next to it or at the bottom. It can exist completely free-standing in mid air<ref>{{bug|MC-178791}}</ref> and it can be rotated. Chains connect horizontally or vertically, but not across different orientations (so a chain with N orientation does not connect to a chain with E orientation in the adjacent block). Horizontal chains one block above a surface may be walked over. Horizontal chains two blocks above a surface prevent players from traveling past them. Vertical chains block travel if targeted directly, but may be skirted. Precision is required, but chains can be walked on, allowing for inconspicuous, although somewhat costly, bridges. Chains can be pushed by [[piston]]s without being broken. === Crafting ingredient === {{crafting usage}} == Sounds == {{Sound table/Block/Chain}} == Data values == === ID === {{edition|java}}: {{ID table |edition=java |showforms=y |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Chain |spritetype=block |nameid=chain |foot=1}} {{edition|bedrock}}: {{ID table |edition=bedrock |firstcolumnname=Chain |shownumericids=y |showforms=y |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Block |spritename=chain |spritetype=block |nameid=chain |id=541 |form=block |itemform=item.chain}} {{ID table |displayname=Item |spritename=chain |spritetype=item |nameid=chain |id=619 |form=item |translationkey=tile.chain.name |foot=1}} === Block states === {{see also|Block states}} {{/BS}} == History == {{History|java}} {{History||1.16|snap=20w16a|[[File:Chain (item) JE1 BE1.png|32px]] [[File:Chain Axis Y JE1 BE1.png|32px]] Added chains. |Chains generate in the newly added [[bastion remnant]]s, and can be found in their [[chest]]s. |Chains currently use the generic metal [[block]] [[sound]]s.}} {{History|||snap=20w17a|Unique [[sound]]s have been added for chains.}} {{History|||snap=20w18a|Chains can now be [[waterlogged]].}} {{History||1.16.2|snap=20w30a|The chance of finding chains in bastion remnant chests is decreased from 31.5% to 24.4%.}} {{History|||snap=Pre-release 1|[[File:Chain Axis X JE1 BE1.png|32px]] [[File:Chain Axis Z JE1 BE1.png|32px]] Chains can now be placed in all orientations.}} {{History||1.17|snap=21w07a|Chains can now generate in [[mineshaft]]s.}} {{History|||snap=21w13a|[[File:Chain (UD) JE2.png|32px]] [[File:Chain (NS) JE2.png|32px]] [[File:Chain (EW) JE2.png|32px]] The model of chains has been changed so that the backside texture is mirrored.}} {{History||1.20<br>(Experimental)|link=1.19.3|snap=22w42a|Chains are now used to craft [[hanging sign]]s.}} {{History|bedrock}} {{History||1.16.0|snap=beta 1.16.0.57|[[File:Chain_(item)_JE1_BE1.png|32px]] [[File:Chain Axis Y JE1 BE1.png|32px]] Added chains.}} {{History|||snap=beta 1.16.0.63|Unique [[sound]]s have been added for chains.}} {{History||1.16.100|snap=beta 1.16.100.54|[[File:Chain Axis X JE1 BE1.png|32px]] [[File:Chain Axis Z JE1 BE1.png|32px]] Chains can now be placed in all orientations.}} {{History||1.20.0<br>(Experimental)|link=Bedrock Edition 1.19.50|snap=beta 1.19.50.21|Chains are now used to craft [[hanging sign]]s.}} {{History|foot}} == Issues == {{issue list}} == Trivia == * A vertical chain, being a solid, but not a full [[block]], allows for many sizes of [[mob]]s and [[player]]s to pass alongside each piece horizontally. * Despite its name, it cannot be [[crafted]] into [[chainmail armor]].<ref>{{bug|MC-178979}} - Invalid</ref> * Chains do not stick together when moved by pistons, regardless of orientation. == Gallery == <gallery> Chained Stone Bricks.jpg|Chains and stone bricks.

A '''bamboo shoot''' is the initial non-solid sapling form of planted bamboo. == Obtaining == Bamboo shoots cannot be obtained through vanilla means. {{IN|bedrock}}, they can be obtained through [[add-on]]s or inventory editing. {{IN|java}}, they are completely unobtainable. === Breaking === Bamboo can be mined with any [[tool]], but a [[sword]] breaks the block [[instant mining|instantly]], even with [[Mining Fatigue]]. Flowing [[water]] also breaks bamboo shoots, but not mature bamboo stalks. {{breaking row|Bamboo|Sword|sword=1|horizontal=1}} {{notelist}} === Natural generation === Bamboo generates in widely scattered single shoots within [[jungle]] [[biome]]s. Bamboo generates much more densely in the [[bamboo jungle|bamboo variant]]s of jungles, covering large areas of the landscape. Bamboo does ''not'' generate in [[sparse jungle]]s.<ref>{{bug|MC-156638|||WAI}}</ref> === Mob loot === {{IN|java}}, a [[panda]] drops 1 bamboo when killed. [[Looting]] does not affect the drop rate.<ref>{{bug|MC-160006}}</ref> {{IN|bedrock}}, a panda drops 0-2 bamboo when killed. Looting increases the drop by 1 per level. === Fishing === Bamboo can be found while [[fishing]] in [[jungle]] [[biome]]s as a junk [[item]]. === Chest loot === {{LootChestItem|bamboo}} == Usage == When broken, any bamboo [[block]] placed or grown above it is also broken. A bamboo block drops itself as an [[item]] if a [[piston]] pushes it or moves a block into its space. When bamboo is first placed as a shoot it's not solid and can be destroyed by water flowing into it. After growing at least one block taller it becomes solid and can't be destroyed by water. To transform a bamboo shoot into a solid bamboo block place another bamboo on top of it. Unlike most plants, bamboo cannot be [[Composter#Composting|composted]].<ref>{{bug|MC-142452|||WAI}}</ref> === Farming === Bamboo can be planted on [[moss block]]s{{only|java|short=1}}, [[grass block]]s, [[dirt]], [[coarse dirt]], [[rooted dirt]], [[gravel]], [[mycelium]], [[podzol]], [[sand]], [[red sand]], [[suspicious sand]], [[suspicious gravel]], [[mud]], bamboo shoot, or on itself. At default random tick speed (3), each plant grows on average every {{convert|4096|ticks|seconds}}. When [[bone meal]] is {{control|used}} on it, it grows by 1–2 [[blocks]]. Bamboo can grow up to 12–16 blocks tall. The top of a bamboo plant requires a [[light]] level of 9 or above to grow. Because bamboo breaks in almost the same way as [[sugar cane]]s, [[Tutorials/Sugar cane farming|a sugar cane farm]] can be easily adapted to this use. While water is not needed with such a farm, some spacing is recommended if the harvest is done manually as mature stalks are solid. === Pandas === Bamboo [[item]]s are eaten by [[panda]]s and can be used to speed up the growth of baby pandas. Bamboo can also be used to breed pandas when at least 8 [[block]]s of bamboo are within 5 blocks of the pandas, making the panda the only animal in the game to have extra breeding requirements. At this point, the [[player]] can feed them bamboo and they [[breeding|mate]] to have a baby. === Fuel === Bamboo can be used as fuel for [[smelting]]. Each bamboo item smelts 0.25 [[item]]s. Crafting two bamboo into a [[stick]] and using that as fuel is equivalent, smelting 0.5 items. Bamboo can be crafted into other items to increase its fuel efficiency. * By crafting 9 bamboo into 2 [[bamboo planks]], 3 items can be smelted instead of 2.25, a 33.3% increase in efficiency. ** {{IN|bedrock}}, the fuel efficiency can be further doubled by crafting the bamboo planks into twice the amount of [[slab]]s.<ref>{{bug|MCPE-94368||Wooden slabs last for the same amount of time as planks in a furnace}}</ref> * {{IN|java}}, by crafting 14 bamboo into 3 [[ladder]]s, 4.5 items can be smelted instead of 3.5, a 28.6% increase in efficiency. === Flower pots === Bamboo can be placed in a [[flower pot]], where it retains the design it has in its item form. === Crafting ingredient === {{crafting usage}} == Appearance == [[File:Bamboo stages.png|thumb|The different stages of bamboo growth.]] The appearance of bamboo changes as it grows. When first placed, it takes the form of a small shoot, which has no [[hitbox]]. When it grows one [[block]] taller it grows to 2 pixels in length and width and the top block has leaves coming off it. At 3 blocks, the top 2 blocks have leaves and at 4 blocks the bamboo expands to 3×3 pixels. At 5 blocks tall, the top 3 blocks have leaves on them. As the bamboo grows, the leaves move up and stay at the top 3 blocks. Destroying a block of bamboo does not change the appearance of the blocks below it. Bamboo is oriented at a random position in the block that it is in. == Sounds == === Bamboo === {{Sound table/Block/Bamboo}} === Bamboo Shoot === {{Sound table/Block/Bamboo shoot}} == Data values == === ID === {{edition|java}}: {{ID table |edition=java |showblocktags=y |showforms=y |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Bamboo |spritetype=block |nameid=bamboo |blocktags=bamboo_plantable_on}} {{ID table |displayname=Bamboo Shoot |spritetype=block |nameid=bamboo_sapling |blocktags=bamboo_plantable_on |form=block |foot=1}} {{edition|bedrock}}: {{ID table |edition=bedrock |shownumericids=y |showforms=y |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Bamboo |spritetype=block |nameid=bamboo |id=418}} {{ID table |displayname=Bamboo Sapling |spritetype=block |nameid=bamboo_sapling |id=419 |form=block |translationkey=- |foot=1}} === Block states === {{see also|Block states}} {{/BS}} == Achievements == {{load achievements|Zoologist}} == History == {{History||September 29, 2018|link={{tweet|minecraft|1046096508570009602}}|Bamboo is announced at [[MINECON Earth 2018]].}} {{History|java}} {{History||1.14|snap=18w43a|[[File:Leafless Bamboo JE1 BE2.png|32px]] [[File:Small Leaves Bamboo JE1 BE2.png|32px]] [[File:Big Leaves Bamboo JE1 BE2.png|32px]] [[File:Leafless Old Bamboo JE1 BE2.png|32px]] [[File:Small Leaves Old Bamboo JE1 BE2.png|32px]] [[File:Big Leaves Old Bamboo JE1 BE2.png|32px]] [[File:Bamboo Shoot JE1 BE1.png|32px]] Added bamboo. |[[File:Bamboo (item) JE1 BE1.png|32px]] Bamboo as an [[item]] can be [[drops|dropped]] by bamboo and planted to grow bamboo. |Added [[bamboo jungle]]s, where bamboo naturally generates.}} {{History||1.16|snap=20w06a|"Bamboo Sapling" has been renamed to "Bamboo Shoot".}} {{History|||snap=20w13a|Bamboo has been moved from the Miscellaneous tab to the Decoration Blocks tab in the [[Creative inventory]].<ref name="misc decoration">https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC-174434</ref>}} {{History||1.17|snap=21w13a|Bamboo can now be planted on rooted dirt.}} {{History|||snap=21w16a|Bamboo can now be planted on moss blocks.}} {{History||1.18|snap=21w39a|Bamboo no longer generates underground.<ref>{{bug|MC-145376}}</ref><ref>{{bug|MC-214894}}</ref>}} {{History||1.19|snap=22w15a|Bamboo can now be planted on mud.}} {{History||1.20<br>(Experimental)|link=1.19.3|snap=22w42a|Bamboo can now be used to craft [[bamboo planks]].}} {{History|||snap=22w45a|Bamboo can no longer be used to craft bamboo planks.|Bamboo can now be used to craft a [[block of bamboo]].}} {{History||1.20<br>(Experimental)|link=1.19.4|snap=23w07a|Bamboo can now be planted on [[suspicious sand]].}} {{History||1.20|snap=23w14a|Bamboo can now be planted on [[suspicious gravel]].}} {{History|bedrock}} {{History||1.8.0|snap=beta 1.8.0.8|[[File:Leafless Bamboo BE1.png|32px]] [[File:Small Leaves Bamboo BE1.png|32px]] [[File:Big Leaves Bamboo BE1.png|32px]] [[File:Leafless Old Bamboo BE1.png|32px]] [[File:Small Leaves Old Bamboo BE1.png|32px]] [[File:Big Leaves Old Bamboo BE1.png|32px]] [[File:Bamboo Shoot JE1 BE1.png|32px]] Added bamboo. |[[File:Bamboo (item) JE1 BE1.png|32px]] Bamboo as an [[item]] can be [[drops|dropped]] by bamboo and planted to grow bamboo.}} {{History||1.9.0|snap=beta 1.9.0.0|Bamboo can now generate in [[jungle]] [[biome]]s in single shoots. |Added [[bamboo jungle]]s, where bamboo naturally generates.}} {{History||1.12.0|snap=beta 1.12.0.3|[[File:Leafless Bamboo JE1 BE2.png|32px]] [[File:Small Leaves Bamboo JE1 BE2.png|32px]] [[File:Big Leaves Bamboo JE1 BE2.png|32px]] [[File:Leafless Old Bamboo JE1 BE2.png|32px]] [[File:Small Leaves Old Bamboo JE1 BE2.png|32px]] [[File:Big Leaves Old Bamboo JE1 BE2.png|32px]] The bamboo texture brightness has been updated to match {{el|je}}.<ref>{{bug|MCPE-42635}}</ref>}} {{History||1.17.30|snap=beta 1.17.20.20|Swords now break bamboo instantly to match ''Java Edition''.<ref>{{bug|MCPE-64013}}</ref>}} {{History||1.20.0|link=Bedrock Edition 1.20.0|snap=beta 1.19.50.21|Bamboo can now be used to craft [[bamboo planks]].}} {{History|||snap=beta 1.19.60.20|Bamboo can no longer be used to craft bamboo planks.|Bamboo can now be used to craft a [[block of bamboo]].}} {{History|console}} {{History||xbox=none|xbone=none|ps=1.83|wiiu=none|switch=none|[[File:Leafless Bamboo JE1 BE2.png|32px]] [[File:Small Leaves Bamboo JE1 BE2.png|32px]] [[File:Big Leaves Bamboo JE1 BE2.png|32px]] [[File:Leafless Old Bamboo JE1 BE2.png|32px]] [[File:Small Leaves Old Bamboo JE1 BE2.png|32px]] [[File:Big Leaves Old Bamboo JE1 BE2.png|32px]] [[File:Bamboo Shoot JE1 BE1.png|32px]] Added bamboo. |[[File:Bamboo (item) JE1 BE1.png|32px]] Bamboo as an [[item]] can be [[drops|dropped]] by bamboo and planted to grow bamboo.}} {{History|foot}} === Bamboo shoot "item" === {{:Technical blocks/Bamboo Shoot}} == Issues == {{Issue list}} == Trivia == * Because bamboo grows quickly (on average 1 growth per 200 seconds), just 500 plants in an automatic farm produce more [[item]]s than a [[hopper]] can collect (2.5 items per second).

They always generate above [[magma cube]] spawners, also found in [[bastion]]s. Chains can also generate in [[mineshafts]]. They generate on the sides of a wooden bridge (a mid-air corridor) when the distance between the bridge and the highest solid block below it is higher than the distance to the lowest solid block above it.

Chains do not require a supporting block to be placed whether it is on the top, next to it or at the bottom. It can exist completely free-standing in mid air<ref>{{bug|MC-178791}}</ref> and it can be rotated. Chains connect horizontally or vertically, but not across different orientations (so a chain with N orientation does not connect to a chain with E orientation in the adjacent block). Horizontal chains one block above a surface may be walked over. Horizontal chains two blocks above a surface prevent players from traveling past them. Vertical chains block travel if targeted directly, but may be skirted. Precision is required, but chains can be walked on, allowing for inconspicuous, although somewhat costly, bridges.

Naturally-occurring emeralds are rarer than [[diamond]]s. == Obtaining == === Trading === {{main|Trading}} Emeralds can be obtained by trading with [[villager]]s, since they are the currency that villagers use for trading. Villagers either buy or sell specific goods for emeralds. === Mining === [[Emerald ore]] drops one emerald when mined using an iron or better [[pickaxe]]. If the pickaxe is enchanted with [[Fortune]], it may drop an extra emerald per level of Fortune, up to a maximum of 4 emeralds with Fortune III. If the ore is mined using a pickaxe enchanted with [[Silk Touch]], it drops itself in ore form instead of an emerald. === Crafting === {{Crafting |Block of Emerald |Output= Emerald,9 |type= Material }} === Smelting === {{Smelting |Emerald Ore; Deepslate Emerald Ore |Emerald |1 }} === Natural generation === {{see also|Emerald Ore#Natural generation}} Emeralds can generate in [[chest]]s in some [[village]] houses or other generated [[Generated structures|structures]]. {{needs update|inaccurate=1|section=1}} {{LootChestItem|emerald}} === Drops === [[Vindicator]]s and [[evoker]]s drop 0–1 emeralds upon death. [[Looting]] increases the maximum emerald drop by one per level, for a maximum of 4 emeralds with Looting III. [[Fox]]es that are holding emeralds also have a chance of 100% to drop the emerald they are holding upon death. Alternatively, the player can drop a food item to entice the fox to drop the emerald without killing it. {{IN|bedrock}}, vindicators and [[pillager]]s spawned from [[raids]] can drop 0–1 emeralds. Depending on difficulty, vindicators and pillagers spawned from raids also have a chance of dropping additional emeralds. There is a 65% chance of dropping on easy and normal, and an 80% chance of dropping on hard. If this additional drop condition is met, different emerald counts can drop with different chances. There is a {{frac|10|39}} chance to drop an additional 0–1 emeralds, a {{frac|5|39}} chance to drop an additional 2–3, and a {{frac|2|39}} chance to drop an additional 4–5. {{IN|bedrock}}, with Looting III, it is possible for a vindicator in a raid to drop up to 16 emeralds upon death (vindicator drops + raid drops + an additional drop<!-- emerald from 2/39 chance-->). == Usage == === Trading === {{main|Trading}} Emeralds are primarily used as currency for [[trading]] with villagers and wandering traders. Trading is typically a faster way to obtain emeralds than by mining, as an emerald ore is rarer than a diamond ore. === Crafting ingredient === {{crafting usage}} ===Beacons=== Emeralds can be used to select powers from a [[beacon]]. The player must select one of the available powers and then insert an emerald into the item slot. An emerald can be substituted for an [[iron ingot]], a [[gold ingot]], a [[diamond]] or a [[netherite ingot]] in a beacon. === Smithing ingredient === {{Smithing |head=1 |ingredients=Any Armor Trim +<br/>Any Armor Piece + <br/>Emerald |Any Armor Trim Smithing Template |Netherite Chestplate |Emerald |Emerald Trim Netherite Chestplate |showdescription=1 |description = All armor types can be used in this recipe,<br/>a netherite chestplate is shown as an example. |tail=1 }} ;Trim color palette The following color palette is shown on the designs on trimmed armor: *{{TrimPalette|emerald}} == Achievements == {{load achievements|The Haggler;Buy Low;Master Trader}} == Advancements == {{load advancements|What a Deal!}} == Data values == === ID === {{edition|java}}: {{ID table |edition=java |showitemtags=y |showforms=y |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Emerald |spritetype=item |nameid=emerald |itemtags=beacon_payment_items |form=item |foot=1}} {{edition|bedrock}}: {{ID table |edition=bedrock |shownumericids=y |showforms=y |notshowbeitemforms=y |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Emerald |spritetype=item |nameid=emerald |id=512 |form=item |foot=1}} == History == {{History|java indev}} {{History||0.31|snap=20100129|Added [[diamond]]s, referred to as emeralds in the code.}} {{History|java}} {{History||May 21, 2012|link={{tweet|jeb_|204619936616808451}}|[[File:Ruby pJE20120521.png|32px]] [[Jens Bergensten|Jeb]] released a screenshot of himself testing the [[trading]] system.

With a mob on a lead held by the player, {{control|using}} the lead on any type of [[fence]] (or [[wall]]{{only|bedrock|short=1}}) attaches the lead to it with a visible knot, tying the mob to it. To attach it to a wall on Bedrock Edition, the player must hold a lead in the main hand.<ref>{{bug|MCPE-108078}}</ref> Multiple leads may be attached to one fence post. A mob tied to a fence tends to stay within 5 blocks of the fence post. A lead is broken by pressing the {{control|use item}} control on the mob again, hitting the knot, or removing the attached fence post. Leads also break when hit by projectiles. Whenever a lead is removed or broken, it drops as an [[item (entity)|item]] at the location of the mob. However, it does not drop when unleashed in Creative mode.{{only|java}}<ref>{{bug|MCPE-79639}}</ref> A lead does not break if the attached animal dies. A lead can stretch a maximum of 10 blocks. If the mob is able to move towards the player or fence post, it does so. If not, or if the mob is moving very quickly away from the player, the lead breaks. When the player or the knot is more than 7 blocks above the ground, the mob being leashed becomes suspended. Most mobs that can be leashed can still be leashed even if attacking the player leashing them, and any attached leads do not break. [[Wolf|Wolves]] cannot be leashed after becoming angry. Despite this, if they become angry while already leashed, the lead does not break, but it cannot be reattached when broken through other methods while the wolf is still angry. A lead attached to a hoglin breaks if it becomes a [[zoglin]]. A lead does not prevent mobs from despawning if they normally would despawn. When moving downwards and accelerating towards the ground, leashed mobs accumulate fall damage and take it if they hit the ground while still accelerating. When moving up or decelerating (such as when the lead is stretched to its limit), the fall distance is set to one block and the mob therefore does not take any fall damage if it touches the ground. If the player walks into and back out of a [[nether portal]] while holding a lead connected to a mob, the lead remains attached to the mob. However, if a mob attached to a lead walks into a nether portal, the lead breaks and drops as an item in the other dimension. A lead can be used to remove a mob from a boat without needing to break the boat, if the mob can normally be leashed. If a chunk unloads while containing a leashed mob (either by the player walking too far away, or traveling to another dimension via a portal), the lead breaks and drops as an item, leaving the mob free to wander around. == Sounds == {{Edition|Java}}: {{Sound table |sound=Lead Knot break1.ogg |sound2=Lead Knot break2.ogg |sound3=Lead Knot break3.ogg |subtitle=Leash Knot breaks |source=neutral |description=When a leash knot is destroyed |id=entity.leash_knot.break |translationkey=subtitles.entity.leashknot.break |volume=1.0 |pitch=1.0 |distance=16}} {{Sound table |sound=Lead Knot place1.ogg |sound2=Lead Knot place2.ogg |sound3=Lead Knot place3.ogg |subtitle=Leash Knot tied |source=neutral |description=When a leash knot is placed on a fence |id=entity.leash_knot.place |translationkey=subtitles.entity.leashknot.place |volume=1.0 |pitch=1.0 |distance=16 |foot=1}} {{Edition|Bedrock}}: {{Sound table |type=bedrock |sound=Lead Knot break1.ogg |sound2=Lead Knot break2.ogg |sound3=Lead Knot break3.ogg |source=neutral |description=When a leash knot is broken by {{ctrl|interacting}} with it |id=leashknot.break |volume=1.0 |pitch=1.0}} {{Sound table |sound=Lead Knot place1.ogg |sound2=Lead Knot place2.ogg |sound3=Lead Knot place3.ogg |source=neutral |description=When a leash knot is placed on a fence or wall |id=leashknot.place |volume=1.0 |pitch=1.0 |foot=1}} == Leash Knot == '''Leash knot''' is an entity created when the [[player]] right-clicks the fence while having a mob leashed. {{Entity| title = Leash Knot| image = Knot.png|imagesize= 100px|networkid='''[[JE]]''': 77}} === Data values === ==== ID ==== {{edition|java}}: {{ID table |edition=java |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Leash Knot |spritetype=entity |nameid=leash_knot |foot=1}} {{edition|bedrock}}: {{ID table |edition=bedrock |shownumericids=y |notshowbeitemforms=y |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Leash Knot |spritetype=entity |nameid=leash_knot |id=88 |foot=1}} ==== Entity data ==== Leash knots have entity data that define various properties of the entity. {{el|java}}: {{main|Entity format}} {{/ED}} {{el|bedrock}}: : See [[Bedrock Edition level format/Entity format]]. == Data values == === ID === {{edition|java}}: {{ID table |edition=java |showforms=y |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Lead |spritetype=item |nameid=lead |form=item |foot=1}} {{edition|bedrock}}: {{ID table |edition=bedrock |shownumericids=y |showforms=y |notshowbeitemforms=y |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Lead |spritetype=item |nameid=lead |id=547 |form=item |foot=1}} == Achievements == {{load achievements|So I Got That Going for Me}} == Advancements == {{load advancements|When the Squad Hops into Town}} == History == {{missing information|The history of a lot of mobs be leashed}} {{History|java}} {{History||1.6.1|snap=13w16a|[[File:Lead JE1 BE1.png|32px]] Added leads. |Leads do not currently have a tooltip and are called “leashes” in [http://www.mojang.com/2013/04/minecraft-snapshot-13w16a-and-new-launcher/ the change notes].}} {{History|||snap=13w16b|Leads have been given a tooltip.}} {{History|||snap=13w18a|Leads have been given a [[crafting]] recipe.}} {{History||1.9|snap=15w50a|Added a [[sound]] for leads: <code>entity.leashknot.place</code>.}} {{History||1.11|snap=16w32a|The [[entity]] ID of the knot has been changed from <code>LeashKnot</code> to <code>leash_knot</code>.}} {{History|||snap=16w39a|Leads can now be found in [[woodland mansion]] chests.}} {{History||1.13|snap=17w47a|Prior to [[1.13/Flattening|''The Flattening'']], this [[item]]'s numeral ID was 420.}} {{History||1.14|snap=18w43a|[[File:Lead JE2 BE2.png|32px]] The texture of leads has been changed.}} {{History|||snap=19w05a|Added [[wandering trader]]s, which are naturally equipped with leads.}} {{History||1.15|snap=?|[[Bee]]s can now be leashed.}} {{History||1.16|snap=20w09a|[[Skeleton horse]]s and [[zombie horse]]s can now be leashed.<ref>{{bug|MC-166246}}</ref>}} {{History|||snap=?|[[Hoglin]]s can now be leashed.}} {{History||1.16.2|snap=20w27a|[[Zoglin]]s can now be leashed.}} {{History||1.17|snap=21w19a|[[Squid]]s and [[glow squid]]s can now be leashed.<ref>{{bug|MC-136647}}</ref>}} {{History|||snap=?|[[Axolotl]]s can now be leashed.}} {{History||1.19|snap=22w13a|Lead may now be found in [[ancient city]] [[chest]]s.}} {{History|||snap=?|[[Frog]]s can now be leashed.}} {{History||1.19.3|snap=22w42a|[[Camel]]s can now be leashed.|Mobs no longer accumulate fall damage when dangling on leads.<ref>{{bug|MC-14167||Mobs build up fall damage when dangling on a lead|Fixed}}</ref>}} {{History||1.20 (Experimental)|link=1.19.4|snap=?|[[Sniffer]]s can now be leashed.}} {{History||1.20|snap=23w12a|Lead can now be found in [[suspicious gravel]] and [[suspicious sand]] in [[trail ruins]].}} {{History|||snap=23w16a|Lead no longer generates in [[suspicious sand]] in [[trail ruins]].|Due to the split of the archaeological loot tables for the suspicious gravel within the [[trail ruins]];

1.14 {{Extension DPL}}<ul><li>[[Lava Bucket|Lava Bucket]]<br/>{{Item | title = Lava Bucket | image = Lava Bucket.png | renewable = Yes | stackable = No }} A '''lava bucket''' is a [[bucket]] filled with [[lava]]. == Obtaining == === Interacting === To fill an empty [[bucket]] with lava, {{control|use}} it on a [[lava]] source block or lava in a [[cauldron]]. The block is consumed in the process. Flowing lava does not fill a bucket. If there is a lava source above the [[pointed dripstone]] stalactite, there is a {{frac|15|256}} (~5.9%) chance for it to completely fill an empty cauldron within 10 blocks under the tip with lava after a [[random tick]]. This lava can then be scooped with a bucket, making it a renewable resource. ==Usage== A lava bucket can be used to place down lava sources with the {{key|Use Item}} button. Doing so gives the player the bucket back. Lava buckets can be used to replace some transparent, non-full blocks such as [[tall grass]] and [[water]], both flowing and sources. {{IN|java}}, lava buckets can be used to break [[Nether Portal (block)|Nether portal blocks]] by placing the lava on the side of a block next to the portal block. === Smelting === A lava bucket can be used as an efficient [[fuel]]. It has the longest burning value of 1000 seconds, compared to 800 seconds for a [[coal block]] (a lava bucket smelts 100 items, and a coal block smelts 80). After smelting starts, the lava bucket turns into an empty bucket. === Trading === {{IN|bedrock}}, journeyman-level armorer villagers buy a lava bucket for one [[emerald]] as part of their trades. {{IN|java}}, journeyman-level armorer villagers have a 40% chance of offering to buy a lava bucket for one emerald. === Cauldrons === A lava bucket can be used to fill a [[cauldron]] with lava. The lava damages any entity standing inside the cauldron, unless the entity is immune to fire damage.<!-- ex: nether mobs--> Flowing water or waterlogging does not affect the lava in the cauldron. == Sounds == {{el|je}}: {{Sound table |sound=Fill lava bucket1.ogg |sound2=Fill lava bucket2.ogg |sound3=Fill lava bucket3.ogg |subtitle=Bucket fills |source=player |description=When a bucket is filled with lava |id=item.bucket.fill_lava |translationkey=subtitles.item.bucket.fill |volume=1.0 |pitch=1.0 |distance=16}} {{Sound table |sound=Empty lava bucket1.ogg |sound2=Empty lava bucket2.ogg |sound3=Empty lava bucket3.ogg |subtitle=Bucket empties |source=block |description=When a lava bucket is emptied |id=item.bucket.empty_lava |translationkey=subtitles.item.bucket.empty |volume=1.0 |pitch=1.0 |distance=16 |foot=1}} {{el|be}}: {{Sound table |type=bedrock |sound=Fill lava bucket1.ogg |sound2=Fill lava bucket2.ogg |sound3=Fill lava bucket3.ogg |source=block |description=When a bucket is filled with lava |id=bucket.fill_lava |volume=1.0 |pitch=1.0}} {{Sound table |sound=Empty lava bucket1.ogg |sound2=Empty lava bucket2.ogg |sound3=Empty lava bucket3.ogg |source=block |description=When a lava bucket is emptied |id=bucket.empty_lava |volume=1.0 |pitch=1.0 |foot=1}} ==Data values== === ID === {{edition|java}}: {{ID table |edition=java |showforms=y |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Lava Bucket |spritetype=item |nameid=lava_bucket |form=item |foot=1}} {{edition|bedrock}}: {{ID table |edition=bedrock |showaliasids=y |shownumericids=y |showforms=y |notshowbeitemforms=y |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Lava Bucket |spritetype=item |nameid=lava_bucket |aliasid=bucket / 10 |id=363 |form=item |translationkey=item.bucketLava.name |foot=1}} == Achievements == {{load achievements|Super Fuel}} == Advancements == {{Load advancements|Hot Stuff}} ==History== {{History|java infdev}} {{History||20100615|[[File:Lava Bucket JE1 BE1.png|32px]] Added lava buckets.}} {{History|java alpha}} {{History||v1.1.0|Buckets of lava can now be used to fuel a [[furnace]] for 100 [[smelting|smelts]], consuming the [[lava]] and the [[bucket]].

This chance is increased by 1% per level of [[Looting]], up to a maximum of 11.5% with Looting III. [[Zombie]]s and [[husk]]s can drop iron swords, [[zombified piglin]]s and [[piglin]]s can drop golden swords, and [[wither skeleton]]s can drop stone swords. The dropped sword is usually badly damaged and may be enchanted. Stone swords dropped by wither skeletons are never enchanted. A [[vex]] wields an iron sword that normally has a 0% chance of dropping, because their main hand's <code>HandDropChances</code> is 0. However, this chance increases by 1 percentage point per level of Looting. It is never damaged{{only|java}} and may be enchanted. {{IN|be}}, [[pillager]]s and [[vindicator]]s that spawn from raids have a 4.1% chance (5.12% chance on hard mode) of dropping a damaged iron sword. This sword has a 50% chance of being enchanted. === Trading === [[File:Weaponsmith Diamond Sword Trade.png|thumb|right|The diamond sword trade of a weaponsmith.]] {{IN|bedrock}}, an apprentice-level weaponsmith villagers sells enchanted iron swords for at least 7-21 emeralds, and a master-level weaponsmith sells enchanted diamond swords for at least 13-27 emeralds. {{IN|java}}, a novice-level weaponsmith villager has a {{frac|2|3}} chance of selling an enchanted iron sword for at least 7-22 emeralds. A master-level weaponsmith offers to sell an enchanted diamond sword for at least 11–27 emeralds. The enchantments of the swords offered by villagers are the same as the ones obtained from an [[enchantment table]] at levels 5–19. === Chest loot === {{LootChestItem|iron-sword,level-enchanted-iron-sword,damaged-random-enchanted-iron-sword,golden-sword,random-enchanted-golden-sword,diamond-sword,damaged-diamond-sword,level-enchanted-diamond-sword,damaged-random-enchanted-diamond-sword,damaged-random-enchanted-diamond-sword-2}} == Usage == === Attacking === Pressing {{control|attack}} while holding a sword inflicts damage on both mobs and other players. Upon damaging a mob or player, the sword's [[Item Durability|durability]] decreases by 1. Attacking a [[boat]] or a [[minecart]] with a sword stone tier or higher instantly destroys it {{only|java}}, without decreasing the sword's durability. Otherwise, it requires 2 hits, with neither decreasing durability. ==== Sweeping ==== {{exclusive|Java|section=1}} If the attack recharge meter is 84.8% or above and the player is on the ground standing or moving slower than the [[sprinting]] speed in a straight line, the sword performs a sweeping attack indicated by a gale [[particle]] that reaches nearby enemies for {{hp|1}} and knocks them back; the amount of knockback is 80% that of the basal knockback and does not benefit from the [[knockback]] enchantment. As result, the player can perform a sweep attack while they are sprinting diagonally but it is impossible to perform a sweep attack at the same time as a critical hit or while riding some [[entity]]. All enemies within an 1 by 0.25 by 1 block area of any part of the attacked mob and whose feet are 3 or less blocks away from player's feet are affected. The [[sweeping edge]] enchantment increases the damage dealt by 50% of the normal hit damage for level I, 67% for level II and 75% for level III. === Damage === {{Main|Damage}} ==== Java Edition ==== Swords have an attack speed of 1.6 and take 0.625 seconds to [[Damage#Attack cooldown|recover]]. {| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center" data-description="Sword attack damage by type" !

animation using a sword before and after [[Java Edition 14w30a]] (from the [[Adventure Update|Adventure]] to the [[Bountiful Update|Bountiful]] updates).]] Previously, since the [[Adventure Update]], all types of swords could be used to parry to block some forms of damage. If the player is blocking with a sword when attacked, the sword deflects 50% of incoming damage from melee, non-magical projectiles like arrows, and explosions, along with minimizing airborne knockback. The sword is held in front of the player and its durability is not reduced by blocking. The player moves at a slower rate than [[sneaking]] if blocking with a sword. Sword blocks could be engaged and disengaged instantly, with no delay between the input and damage mitigation nor cooldown between lowering a block and raising a new one. After the [[Combat Update]], the sword blocking functionality was replaced by blocking with [[shield]]s and to accommodate the [[dual wield]] system. Shields negate more damage and knockback than sword blocking from "blockable" attacks (they block 100% damage and knockback after [[Java Edition 1.11]]), but, unlike swords, they lose durability, have a 0.25 second startup period before damage can be mitigated and can be temporarily disabled by attacks with an [[axe]]. === Knockback === The knockback dealt by swords used to be higher than while the players are using another melee [[item]]s, like an axe or with the hands.

Trivia

• In version 2.2.2529 release notes there's text, that reads: T⍑ᒷ ᔑ ̇/𝙹ꖎ𝙹ℸ ̣ ꖎᓭ ᔑ∷ᒷ リ𝙹ℸ ̣ ∴⍑ᔑℸ ̣ ℸ ̣ ⍑ᒷ|| ᓭᒷᒷᒲ - which after translations means "THE AXOLOTS ARE NOT WHAT THEY SEEM".
• Both Alpha and Classic versions of Minecraft: Java Edition are listed as "old_alpha", despite them not being the same.
• The Minecraft Launcher doesn't store passwords locally. Instead, it uses a 'refresh token'.
• The current Minecraft Launcher is the eighth launcher for Minecraft: Java Edition, and the third that was built to automatically update itself.
• Game crashes are reported to Mojang Studios through Hopper.
• The legacy Minecraft Launcher can be downloaded here (version 1.6.93, ~4.6MB as opposed to the modern launcher's ~85MB). However, the legacy Minecraft Launcher is incompatible with Microsoft accounts and were discontinued in Q2 2021 due to account migration.
