Is there anything I need to know before downloading Minecraft PE 1.2.5.15?
Contents
Yes, a few things! First and foremost, as this is an update to Bedrock Edition, you will need to have the game version 1.2.5 installed in order to apply it. Additionally, while the changelog for this update is not yet available, Mojang has stated that it contains “bug fixes and performance improvements”. As always, we recommend backing up your world data before updating, just in case!
With that being said, let’s get into the update itself. The first thing you’ll notice is that there are three new options in the Settings menu: Input Lag Reduction, Touch Control Optimization, and Reduced Live Preview Render Distance. These options are all disabled by default but can be enabled to improve performance on lower-end devices.
Next up are some changes to the UI. The main screen has been revamped with new buttons and icons, and the world selection screen has been given a similar makeover. Additionally, the in-game HUD has been tweaked slightly, with the addition of a new “Crosshair” option under the “Options” menu.
And last but not least, a number of bugs have been fixed with this update. These include crashes related to chunk rendering, blocks not being placed correctly, and more. For a full list of changes, be sure to check out the patch notes below!
