Minecraft players are eagerly awaiting the arrival of 1.18 Caves and Cliffs Update Part Two, which includes a huge number of new features for players to explore. Mojang Studios has been working hard to deliver the update, with an expected release date of Nov. 30, 2021. Over the last two days, Mojang has released a series of Minecraft: Java Edition 1.18 Release Candidates, which are potential final builds for the upcoming content update. The latest snapshot is Release Candidate 3, which could be the full 1.18 update we see in a few days.
Because 1.18 'Caves and Cliffs Update' Part Two is practically finished, these Release Candidate snapshots only contain one or two bug fixes and little else. Still, it's important that these snapshots be thoroughly tested before release date, so that any lingering critical issues are discovered and fixed.
Minecraft is already the greatest game ever made, numbered among the best PC games of all time. The upcoming content update promises to cement this even further with tons of new features for players to explore.
