The launcher installs and updates the game — no need to grab these archives by hand. You need your own Minecraft: Java Edition.
Binaries removed (licence cleanup, see #6741); tags and source remain.
Fixed
- Fix #1222 at the root: boats, minecarts, frames and lightning for a server's players (#1280, fixes #1222)
- Play with Friends on single player's server thread (#1285)
This is an alpha build: launchers on the Alpha channel (Settings, Updates) install it now; Stable gets it in the next daily update if it holds up.
Install or update it from the Horizon launcher: it installs new versions by itself. New here? Get the launcher at https://playhorizon.dev. You need your own copy of Minecraft: Java Edition.
