Here’s what’s new in the latest Minecraft: Bedrock Edition Beta and Preview update! Please keep sending in any suggestions you have atfeedback.minecraft.net, and please report and upvote any bugs you find atbugs.mojang.com!

Trial Spawner

• Fixed some Trial Spawner texture inconsistencies (MCPE-181455)

Commands

• Music will no longer be stopped by the ‘/stopsound’ command

Game Tips

• Added a swim tip for touch devices
• How to move is now taught to players on touch devices with the D-pad control scheme

Sometimes it’s not a good time to learn new game play skills. For example, opening your inventory is not a relevant skill when you just discovered that the floor is lava. So here are some additional constraints for when game tips don’t show up:

• The swim game tip only shows up when you are in water
• The break block tip is the most relevant tip when you’re freezing in powder snow. Other tips won’t show up
• When there are hostile mobs nearby you can still learn skills that will help you run away (movement, jumping and camera movement) but other tips won’t bother you

Petrified Oak Slab

• The Oak-Slab-looking variation of “stone_block_slab” (aux value 2) is now flattened into its own new block “minecraft:petrified_oak_slab” (MCPE-180964)

  • “minecraft:petrified_oak_slab” can only be obtained and placed through commands
• The Oak-Slab-looking variation of “double_stone_block_slab” (aux value 2) is now flattened into its own new block “minecraft:petrified_oak_double_slab” (MCPE-180964)
