Minecraft is a game that takes many forms, from the two main versions of Java and Bedrock to the many platforms you can play the game on. While a wide range of players prefer Minecraft on Java, many others prefer the crossplay aspect of Minecraft on Bedrock. Before you can join your friends and many other players in that adventure though, you need to make sure you have the latest update installed. If you’re having trouble with how to do this, there’s no need to worry. In this guide, we’ll explain how to update your game for Minecraft on the PC version of Bedrock Edition.

How to Update Minecraft on PC Bedrock

Now, about 99% of the time the game should simply update on its own in the background with nothing more needed from your end. That 1% of the time though, due to the Microsoft Store not always being the most reliable storefront, will result in the update not going through. Sometimes a full PC restart can handle this, but there’s surprisingly an easier way. To force an update onto Bedrock, open up the Microsoft Store by typing its name into your Windows search bar. Once it’s opened, what you have to do will depend on your version of Windows. On Windows 10, you’ll need to click the three dots in the top left and click Downloads and Updates (or something along those lines). On Windows 11, you need to click Library in the bottom left.

Once at this menu, you may see Minecraft for Windows as an option for updating. If you don’t, click “Get updates” and you should see it pop up. If the download doesn’t start automatically, just click Update on it and it should update your game if the Windows Store is functioning properly. Once it’s done, your game is updated to the latest version and you should be able to play again! Have fun!
