How to download Minecraft Bedrock 1.17.20.23 Beta version

Mojang has already started work on the second part of the Minecraft Caves and Cliffs update. Last week, the developers released experimental snapshots for the Java Edition and a bedrock beta featuring a new generation of worlds and biomes.

Mojang has released another beta version for Bedrock devices. Unfortunately, this time the beta is about bug fixes, not new features related to terrain creation. Update 1.17 adds more than 100 new items and blocks to Minecraft. It's natural for beta releases to fix bugs rather than provide new content.

Minecraft Bedrock 1.17.20.23 fixed various stability and performance issues. Bugs related to items, mobs, blocks, and more are also addressed in this version. This article guides players on how to download the latest beta release.

Minecraft Bedrock version 1.17.20.23 is the latest beta release for Bedrock devices. It is only available for gamers playing on Android, Xbox, and Windows devices. Players who already have a copy of Minecraft can download the beta version for free.
