4
Minecraft update 1.19.71 is now available across all supported platforms and it fixes several bugs, including one that was haunting Nintendo Switch players for the last few days since the release of patch 1.19.70.

As soon as players install today's update, they should no longer face any issues in the game's initial loading screen, which used to be stuck at 66% on Nintendo Switch.

Moreover, the new update fixes a crash on iOS devices as well as some UI issues across all platforms. The game also fixes the issue with signs after enabling the ray-tracing feature on PC. Below you can check out the full patch notes:

Fixed an issue that could cause the game to get stuck at 66% when loading at launch

Fixed a crash that could occur at launch on iOS

Fixed player names not appearing through the environment and behind walls

Fixed a bug that caused the text on Signs not to be displayed with ray tracing enabled on PC

Fixed an issue where players would load incorrect data when loading a local game after connecting to a server or Realm

Players are now prompted with the option to enable text-to-speech, if supported, on first startup


As one of Xbox Game Studios' biggest titles, Minecraft was released on Nintendo Switch back in 2017. Since then, the game has expanded its player base even more, as the developers at Mojang are currently working on more spin-offs from the series that will be available on a wide variety of platforms, including Switch.

Currently, the console version of Minecraft is being maintained by the Scottish developer 4J Studios. However, the team is also working on multiple other projects as well.

This year, Minecraft is supposed to receive update 1.20, which will introduce camels into the game along with a number of other new features that were revealed back last year during the Minecraft Live Celebration event. Currently, there is no release date for update 1.20, but it is going to be the game's biggest content expansion for this year.

For now, Mojang is fully focused on Minecraft: Legends, which will be available on April 18.
