1.13 PRE-RELEASE 5 for JAVA EDITION - OUT NOW!

That’s right, 2 Java Pre-releases this week being Tuesday and today (Thursday). This pre-release contains essential bug fixes as well as a new launcher version update.

With bugs being squashed and the game being polished, this means after a few more pre-releases, 1.13 Update Aquatic will be available for Minecraft Java Edition as a full update.

Reminder: Bedrock Edition will be getting 1.5 Phase 2 with the rest of Aquatic and 1.6 with phantoms (July/August approx). Console Edition will get the Update Aquatic (Old Gen and PS4) but release will come after Bedrock later on as Roger Carpenter (Exec. Producer MC Console) said last week.
