Minecraft Bedrock 1.17.20.20 is the newest game version. We are happy to inform you that it contains much more features than the previous two updates, especially Minecraft Bedrock 1.17.2. Even if the present one is a beta, this meaning that the builds created in it may be slightly unstable compared to those created in full versions and that it does not allow players to join Realms, the changes brought by it are worth checking.

Try this beta and you will discover that:
