The new Caves and Cliffs update to Minecraft Java has gotten everyone talking, and in this quick and easy tutorial, we will help you join in on the fun by showing you how to install this new update to your game. Make sure to follow closely for the best results! Right, let’s get into it.
The first thing you will want to do is simply open up your Minecraft java launcher from your desktop. To the left of the green Play button, you should be able to see the version of Minecraft you are running. Click on it and select “latest snapshot” from the drop-down menu that appears. In case you do not see this option in your menu, not to worry. Simply go into your Installations tab from the top left of the screen and make sure the “Snapshots” option is ticked here. Now, click on New Installation and name it as you like. Under the versions option, make sure to select 1.17, since this is the version of Minecraft that brings in the Caves and Cliffs update to the game. Now, create this installation and go back to the Play tab. Now, select the installation that you just created from the versions list to the left of your Play button. Now, go ahead and click on play. Don’t be surprised if the game does not start, but instead takes you to your web browser. This is so that the game can download and install this brand new update to its files. Once it is completed, the game will automatically start. You should now be able to see the all-new home screen and load into a world to interact with all of the new mobs, blocks, and items.
We hope this guide helped you out. Have fun with this amazing update! Cheers.
