Minecraft 1.21.8 for Java Edition is finally out, and this new hotfix introduces an array of features and changes.

Minecraft players on systems with an Intel iGPU were experiencing some game-breaking glitches, especially with in-game visuals. These issues included the screen freezing during gameplay.

Previously, it was standard practice for Sun to fix older versions of Java, such as J2SE 5.0 and J2SE 1.4, weeks or even months after it had patched the latest Java SE 6 software.

The new Java update “is not a security fix or Critical Patch,” the blog states. Administrators should direct their users to download and install the update, Oracle added.
