'''Beta 26.20.20''' (ChromeOS, Android) or '''Preview 26.20.20''' (Windows, iOS, iPadOS, Xbox, PlayStation) is the first beta/''Preview'' for [[Minecraft:Bedrock Edition 26.20]], released on March 10, 2026,<ref>{{cite|url=https://feedback.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/articles/44164962819725-Minecraft-Beta-Preview-26-20-20|title=Minecraft Beta & Preview - 26.20.20|website=Minecraft Feedback|date=March 10, 2026}}</ref> which fixes bugs.

== Changes ==
=== Blocks ===
'''[[Minecraft:Grass block]]'''
* Can now create [[Minecraft:tall grass]] when fertilized with [[Minecraft:bone meal]].

'''[[Minecraft:Torch]]'''
* Recipe can now be unlocked by acquiring either a [[Minecraft:stick]], [[Minecraft:coal]], [[Minecraft:charcoal]], or any [[Minecraft:pickaxe]].

=== General ===
'''Graphical'''
* The [[Minecraft:End flash]] is now visible on all graphics modes.
* Added MERS textures for all [[Minecraft:shelf]] blocks and [[Minecraft:nautilus armor]] variants.
** However, this change caused them to lose their texture.

=== Mobs ===
'''[[Minecraft:Baby mobs]]'''
* No longer show [[Minecraft:green particle|green growth particles]] when being fed if their growth is currently paused (due to using a [[Minecraft:golden dandelion]]).

=== Technical ===
'''AI Goals'''
* Made the schemas for the following goals stricter when parsing and will fail to load an entity json that has invalid data in versions 1.26.20 and newer:
** {{cd|minecraft:behavior.admire_item}}
** {{cd|minecraft:behavior.barter}}
** {{cd|minecraft:behavior.eat_carried_item}}
** {{cd|minecraft:behavior.equip_item}}
** {{cd|minecraft:behavior.move_indoors}}
** {{cd|minecraft:behavior.move_outdoors}}
** {{cd|minecraft:behavior.hide}}
** {{cd|minecraft:behavior.mingle}}
** {{cd|minecraft:behavior.move_to_poi}}
** {{cd|minecraft:behavior.move_to_village}}
** {{cd|minecraft:behavior.sleep}}
** {{cd|minecraft:behavior.stroll_towards_village}}
* The {{cd|sound_interval}} float range field in {{cd|minecraft:behavior.admire_item}} now only accepts an object with {{cd|min}} and {{cd|max}} values. Other formats will fail to parse.

'''[[Minecraft:API]]'''
* Released {{cd|@minecraft/server}} version 2.7.0.
* Added {{cd|@minecraft/server}} version 2.8.0-beta.
* Released {{cd|AimAssistCategory}} from {{cd|beta}} to {{cd|v2.6.0}}.
* Released {{cd|AimAssistCategorySettings}} from {{cd|beta}} to {{cd|v2.6.0}}.
* Released {{cd|AimAssistPreset}} from {{cd|beta}} to {{cd|v2.6.0}}.
* Released {{cd|AimAssistPresetSettings}} from {{cd|beta}} to {{cd|v2.6.0}}.
* Released {{cd|AimAssistRegistry}} from {{cd|beta}} to {{cd|v2.6.0}}.
* Released {{cd|PlayerAimAssist}} from {{cd|beta}} to {{cd|v2.6.0}}.
* Released {{cd|PlayerAimAssistSettings}} from {{cd|beta}} to {{cd|v2.6.0}}.
* Released {{cd|AimAssistTargetMode}} from {{cd|beta}} to {{cd|v2.6.0}}.
* Released {{cd|World.getAimAssist}} from {{cd|beta}} to {{cd|v2.6.0}}.
* Released {{cd|Player.getAimAssist}} from {{cd|beta}} to {{cd|v2.6.0}}.
* A new field, {{cd|embed_in_surface}}, has been added to the schema of {{cd|snap_to_surface_feature}}, which allows specifying whether the snapped feature should be embedded in the located surface.

'''Blocks'''
* The custom block json API has the following changes that will affect loading of block json with format version 1.26.20 and up:
** General:
*** Namespace constraints have been tweaked but everything permitted before should still be valid.
**** This can affect the identifiers used for the block, states and menu category groups.
** [[Minecraft:Block definition|Block Traits]]:
*** {{cd|placement_direction}} trait, validation change: The rotation offset does not accept a 0.5 tolerance anymore.
**** Input value must be a multiple of {{cd|90.0}}.
**** The value must be in the range {{cd|0.0}} to {{cd|360.0}} inclusive.
*** {{cd|blocks_to_corner_with}} now requires {{cd|minecraft:corner_and_cardinal_direction}} to be one of the {{cd|enabled_states}} for the {{cd|placement_direction}} trait.
** Category:
*** {{cd|menu_category}}, validation change: An empty {{cd|group}} value is not allowed.
**** The {{cd|group}} field can either exist with a non-empty value or not exist at all.
*** {{cd|category}} is now a required field, when using {{cd|menu_category}}.
** [[Minecraft:Block components|Components]]:
*** {{cd|minecraft:flower_pottable}}, validation change: It is restricted outside of root components object.
*** {{cd|minecraft:geometry}}, validation change: The constraint on the {{cd|culling_shape}} identifier is strictly enforced now.
**** When using the minecraft namespace, the only currently available culling shape identifiers are: {{cd|minecraft:empty}} or {{cd|minecraft:unit_cube}}.
**** When using no namespaces or a custom one, the names must start and end with an alpha-numeric character.
*** {{cd|minecraft:light_dampening}} and {{cd|minecraft:light_emission}}, validation change: They now strictly enforce the value to be between {{cd|0}} and {{cd|15}} inclusive.
*** There is a breaking change to how tags are defined.
**** As of version 1.26.20, tags cannot freely live as top level entities in the components array.
***** They must live inside the {{cd|minecraft:tags}} component, which accepts an array of tags of the format:
****** {{cd|minecraft:tags: ["minecraft:crop", "custom:custom_tag"]}}.
**** The values must have the format {{cd|<namespace>:<tag_name>}}.
***** They no longer need to be prefixed with {{cd|tag:}}.
****** None of the changes mentioned above were actually applied in this preview.

'''[[Minecraft:Component]]s'''
* The {{cd|minecraft:damage_sensor}} component {{cd|deals_damage}} field now supports an additional value:
** {{cd|no_but_entity_effects_apply}}:
*** Damage is not applied to the entity.
*** Knockback and enchantments are applied.
*** The attacker's weapon is used as normal.
*** The entity does not flash red.

'''Entity components'''
* The behavior of the {{cd|minecraft:friction_modifier}} component now matches its description.
** The higher its value, the more friction affects an entity:
*** {{cd|0.0}} means no friction.
*** {{cd|1.0}} means regular friction.
*** {{cd|2.0}} means double friction.
** The component now affects ground friction only, and no longer partially affects air or liquid drag.
** The legacy incorrect behavior can be re-enabled by adding the {{cd|minecraft:uses_legacy_friction}} component.
*** This component is automatically added to all entities with a format version lower than 1.26.20, to ensure their behavior stays unaltered.
** The component now properly works on players, and on other client-predicted entities.
* Added the {{cd|minecraft:uses_uniform_air_drag}} component.
** When present, air drag is applied uniformly on both the vertical and horizontal axes, instead of being biased toward horizontal movement.
* Added the {{cd|minecraft:on_equipment_changed}} component, which allows executing entitiy events when items are equipped or unequipped in specific equipment slots.
** Contains a {{cd|slots}} field with a list of entries, each with:
*** {{cd|slot}}, the equipment slot to monitor.
*** {{cd|on_equip}}, event to fire when a non-empty item is placed in the slot.
*** {{cd|on_unequip}}, event to fire when the slot is cleared.
** When equipment changes, the first matching slot entry is used.

'''Entity filters'''
* Added the {{cd|has_equipment_block_tag}} entity filter.
* Added the {{cd|has_same_equipment_in_slot_as}} entity filter.

'''[[Minecraft:Feature]]s'''
* Added a boolean {{cd|rotate_around_center}} field to the {{cd|minecraft:structure_template_feature}} feature.
** When set to {{cd|true}}, it rotates the structure around its center when placing it in the world.
** Defaults to {{cd|false}} if omitted.

'''Graphical'''
* Added new version for the water configuration JSON file:
** New format version is {{cd|1.26.20}}.
** The fields {{cd|minecraft:water_settings}} and {{cd|minecraft:water_settings/description}} are now required.

'''Stability and Performance'''
* Improved sign-in speed on most platforms by triggering authentication earlier during game startup.

'''[[Minecraft:World generation]]'''
* Can now use {{cd|minecraft:feature_pool_element}} in jigsaw structure template pools in order to place features.
* {{cd|feature}}s can now connect to a Jigsaw block with any target name, rather than only {{cd|minecraft:bottom}}.
** However, it only connects to internal vanilla features.
