Tips for Enjoying Minecraft April Fools Updates

Although the primary focus of this article is on downloading and playing past April Fools updates, the same approach can be used to download any version of the game. To begin, launch Minecraft and navigate to the installation section. This is where you can obtain the most recent updates for the game.

Upon viewing the page, you may come across multiple installed versions, all of which are the versions you currently possess. To acquire a different version, simply select “new installation.”

This article will center on the 2019 April Fool’s release of Minecraft, which is also known as Minecraft 3D or Snapshot 3D Shareware V1.34. This version marks the inclusion of the iconic God Horse and various intriguing cheats. If you wish to obtain a different version, simply locate the snapshot version in the “Version”box and scroll through the list to find the desired one, with the oldest versions appearing at the bottom.

As our goal is to find a particular version, we simply need to search for it and the Snapshot 3D will appear. You can name the installation however you prefer, although it is advised to use a name that corresponds to the version. The download directory can be modified at your discretion. We suggest keeping the resolution at auto.

After making your selection, simply click on the “Create”button located at the bottom right of the launcher. Then, all you have to do is wait while the chosen version is downloaded. Once the download is finished, you can open the launch page and begin playing the game. To access older Snapshots of the game, just switch the version from “latest”to the one you downloaded before launching the game.
