I am wondering how they are going to do Updates for Minecraft, what will probably come down to is the PC version will be the best version to play because of the free updates, bigger community, and more crazy things to happen.

Hi BarryStanfield! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

For this you need to download the insider hub app and you need to join the Minecraft beta, then you will have to uninstall the game and install it back again
