Minecraft continues to undergo evolution after the 1.20 Trails & Tales update, and players can enjoy them courtesy of Java Edition's snapshots and Bedrock Edition's preview betas. The latest of the betas arrived on August 31, 2023, in the form of the 1.20.30.25 preview. The new preview admittedly doesn't do much past a few Bedrock/Education Edition bug fixes, but it does come with a message.

Specifically, Mojang remarked in this Minecraft beta's patch notes that it is continuing to make tweaks to the oft-derided balance changes for villager trading. These implementations remain an experimental feature, and Mojang stated that it will continue to monitor fan feedback to come to a consensus that is both fun and balanced.

Regardless of that point of controversy, if Minecraft players want to download the latest Bedrock preview, the process is a bit different depending on the platform.


How to download Minecraft Preview 1.20.30.25 on all compatible platforms

Currently, Minecraft's Preview Program for Bedrock Edition is available on Xbox consoles, Windows 10/11 PCs, and Android/iOS mobile devices.

The process of downloading or updating to the latest beta is a bit different, depending on which platform players are enjoying the game on, so it doesn't hurt to examine the process on each compatible device.

Once Minecraft players have downloaded the preview, it should update automatically much like the standard game app would. Fans can then access the preview regularly as new additions and updates are released.
