Beta 1.21.80.22 (ChromeOS, Android) or Preview 1.21.80.22 (Windows, iOS, iPadOS, Xbox, PlayStation) is the third beta/Preview version for Bedrock Edition 1.21.80, released on March 26, 2025,^[1] which adds flat world presets, and fixes bugs.

Flat world presets

• It is now possible to select a flat world preset in the Advanced tab of the create new world screen when flat world mode has been enabled.
• Player can now have more variety in your flat worlds with the following presets:
  • Classic Flat (The classic flat world)
  • Tunnelers' Dream
  • Water World (an endless ocean)
  • Overworld
  • Snowy Kingdom
  • Bottomless Pit
  • Desert
  • Redstone Ready (flat sandstone)

UI

• Updated the friends drawer status to tell if a friend is playing in the same world as a player.

Block Components

• Removed Upcoming Creator Features experiment requirement for field isotropic in minecraft:material_instances component.

Blocks

• From 1.21.80 onward, when using a minecraft:geometry component or minecraft:material_instances component, you must include both.

Commands

• Released /place structure and /place jigsaw out of the Data-Driven Jigsaw Structures experiment.

Components

• Added validation for block asset references in components.
  • Content errors will log missing block references for the following components:
    • item component minecraft:digger
    • item component minecraft:entity_placer
    • item component minecraft:block_placer
    • spawn rules component minecraft:spawns_on_block_filter
    • spawn rules component minecraft:spawns_on_block_prevented_filter
    • spawn rules component minecraft:spawns_above_block_filter
  • can_be_stolen has been moved from presets back to being a direct sub-field of the minecraft:leashable component.

Documentation

• Include biome and client_biome JSON files in generated documentation.

Goals

• Added fields to minecraft:behavior.tempt goal:
  • The stop_distance field specifies a custom distance for when the tempted mob should stop moving towards the player.
  • The on_start field specifies the event to trigger when the goal starts.
  • The on_end field specifies the event to trigger when the goal ends.
• Added minecraft:behavior.float_tempt goal, which allows a tempted mob to move in a line towards the player:
  • This goal is a variant of the minecraft:behavior.tempt goal and shares the same fields
  • Requires the mob to be in a floating state (e.g. use the minecraft:navigation.float component)

Structures

• Exposed new fields to data driven jigsaw structures: start_height, dimensional_padding, pool_aliases, max_distance_from_center
• Made height_map_projection optional and changed anchor to start_jigsaw_name

These additions and changes are accessible by enabling the "Beta APIs" and "Locator Bar" experimental toggles.

API

@minecraft/server 2.0.0-beta

• EntitySkinIdComponent has been changed to read-only in version 2.0 beta
• Added property localizationKey to Entity, Block, and ItemStack which returns the key used for finding the localized names of these objects.

Added new Container APIs:

• contains(ItemStack): Attempts to find an instance of an item inside the container.
• firstEmptySlot(): Finds the index of the first empty slot inside the container.
• irstItem(): Finds the index of the first item inside the container.
• find(ItemStack): Find the index of the first instance of an item inside the container.
• reverseFind(ItemStack): Find the index of the last instance of an item inside the container.

Custom Commands

• Added support for custom commands authored in script. The new CustomCommandRegistry is provided when listening to ModuleStartupEvent.
  • Additional types added:
    • CustomCommandRegistry
    • CustomCommandPermissionLevel
    • CustomCommandParamType
    • CustomCommandResult and CustomCommandStatus
    • CustomCommandParameter

Player locator bar

• Dots are now shown representing players in spectator mode to other players also in spectator mode on the locator bar.

Graphical

• Disabled split screen for the Deferred Technical Preview. Deferred/Ray Tracing modes are not available in the video menu during split screen sessions, and starting a split screen session while in one of these modes will force the game back to Fancy mode.
