Mojang has come out of the gates fast with yet another additional Minecraft 1.19 update before its launch, Pre Release 3.

Minecraft 1.19 Pre-Release 3 continues to hone the content coming in The Wild Update with bug fixes, adjustments, and even some new features along the way.

These new Pre-Release updates have taken over after a long string of Snapshot updates. And while it’s an exciting sign that things are closer to launch, it also means a bit of chaos as these updates don’t come with a regular schedule.

With that, let’s dive right into the Minecraft 1.19 Pre-Release 3 update, including covering its patch notes and how to download it to see The Wild Update now.

Release Date

The Minecraft 1.19 Pre-Release 3 update went live on Wednesday, May 25th

This patch comes just two days after Pre-Release 2, and makes some important changes in its patch notes.
