1.9.1 PRE-RELEASE NOW AVAILABLE

1.9 is still hot off the presses, but Mojang wasted no time in following up with some tweaks, and a few bug-fixes to boot! The pre-release is available to test right now, and can be loaded up in the Minecraftclient like any regular snapshot, using the same procedures. We have listed the process below for your convenience. The current expected release date for 1.9.1 proper will be in approximately two weeks.

Please report any and all bugs you find in Minecraft to bugs.mojang.com. If nobody reports a bug, the bugs might skip town and call their friends!

To get snapshots (or, in this case, the pre-release), open your launcher and press the “New Profile” button. Call it “snapshots” and check the box saying “Enable experimental development snapshots” and save. To switch to the normal version, you can select it in the dropdown at the bottom left corner of the launcher. Back up your world first or run the game on in a different folder (See the “new profile” dialog).

Snapshots can corrupt your world, please backup and/or run them in a different folder from your main worlds.
