Bedrock Edition version history

This page is a reverse chronology of all updates released for Bedrock Edition. Minecraft: Bedrock Edition has been in development since August 16, 2011, and was called Minecraft: Pocket Edition at the time. Bedrock Edition was in Alpha until November 18, 2016, when the game was fully released. Upon the release of Bedrock Edition 1.2.0, the "Pocket Edition" subtitle was dropped and the edition was unofficially (officially since June 7, 2022) dubbed "Bedrock Edition". Further updates have been released ever since, the most recent being 26.32.

After the release of the Better Together Update on September 20, 2017, multiplayer could now be conducted across Windows, mobile, Xbox One, and eventually Nintendo Switch on June 21, 2018, PS4 on December 10, 2019, ChromeOS on June 7, 2023, PS5 on October 22, 2024, and Xbox Series X|S on June 17, 2025. Minecraft: Bedrock Edition is still being developed today.

With Pocket Edition 1.0.0 implementing the final dimension in the game - the End, Minecraft: Pocket Edition embraced its full release. It was re-branded as Minecraft less than a year later.
