To enjoy the features of beta and preview before the official release, players should have a copy of Bedrock Edition.

- Install the update by clicking the ‘Update’ button.
- If there is no update button, click on the ‘Get Updates’ button to manually install the updates for Minecraft Bedrock.
- The same thing goes for the Xbox app; search for Minecraft Preview in the installed apps and click on the ‘Update’ button to install the 1.21.70.20 beta and preview update successfully.
However, if this your first time downloading a beta and preview, perform these steps:
- Open the Minecraft launcher and select Bedrock version from the left sidebar.
- Go to the ‘Latest Release’ next to the ‘Play’ button and select the ‘Latest Preview’ option. Click on ‘Play’ to download the files for the latest beta and preview version.
