Template:Infobox version Template:Relevant guide
1.2.0, the first release of the Minecraft:Better Together Update, is a first release of Minecraft:Bedrock Edition or simply Minecraft. Bedrock Edition is a continuation of Minecraft:Pocket Edition and its derived editions. It added support for the Xbox One, introduced cross-platform gameplay, and brought the vanilla game much closer to feature parity with Template:El by adding features such as new world options, Minecraft:armor stands, Minecraft:banners, Minecraft:jukeboxes, Minecraft:book and quills, Minecraft:fireworks, and Minecraft:parrots. It was released on September 20, 2017, although the full rollout took a few days due to a large number of distribution channels and target devices involved. It should also be noted that there is no changelog documenting differences between this update and the last version of Minecraft:Xbox One Edition.
