26.2 Pre-Release 3 (known as 26.2-pre-3 in the launcher) is the third pre-release for Java Edition 26.2, released on June 2, 2026.[1]
Changes
[edit | edit source]Mobs
[edit | edit source]- The block inside a sulfur cube now only aligns vertically with the block grid when the sulfur cube is invisible.
- The squish animation will no longer be played when a sulfur cube has a block inside.
Gameplay
[edit | edit source]- This exploit has been temporarily reimplemented. However, this feature is said to not be supported and planned to be fixed in a future version.[1]
General
[edit | edit source]- The tooltip for the "Exclusive Fullscreen" video setting now mentions that Adaptive Sync (Nvidia G-Sync, AMD FreeSync) should work when it is enabled and will not work when it is disabled.
Fixes
[edit | edit source]From released versions before 26.2
- MC-268008 – Players' sneaking state can sometimes desync.
- MC-301325 – Menu music starts for a brief moment during the creation of a new world.
- MC-307860 – The animation of the dark overlay in the advancements screen is slower on lower framerates.
- MC-307884 – Characters in the Unicode font have uneven gaps between them.
- MC-308065 – When placing a bed, the head part takes an extra frame to appear.
- MC-308245 – Partially transparent flower textures produce ghosting artifacts when mipmapped.
- MC-308426 – Setting a movement key bind and the "Debug Modifier" key bind to the same key lets you move while an inventory is open.
From the 26.2 development versions
- MC-307713 – The noxious_gas_08 particle texture has a resolution of 16x15.
- MC-307794 – Sulfur cubes with absorbed primed TNT cannot be hit with spears.
- MC-307822 – Geysers are less effective on players riding other entities.
- MC-307899 – Adding large animated textures to atlases causes the Vulkan rendering backend to run out of memory.
- MC-307916 – Explosions caused by sulfur cubes with absorbed TNT do not drop every destroyed block.
- MC-307969 – Log spam when attempting to render a monster spawner in Peaceful difficulty.
- MC-308036 – Attempting to send a friend request to yourself silently fails with no user feedback.
- MC-308042 – CTRL+NUM within the friends menu requires the buttons to be focused in order to function, unlike other menus.
- MC-308092 – Disconnecting from the network on the friends screen and exiting the game causes the JVM to crash.
- MC-308107 – The border around the text under the listed friends in the friends menu disappears when pressing Enter and exiting the link confirmation screen.
- MC-308133 – Geysers take away boats' horizontal momentum.
- MC-308152 – Hitting sulfur cubes that are hanging in mid air near the top now causes them to gain a lot more height.
- MC-308436 – Blocks absorbed by small sulfur cubes are displayed incorrectly.
- MC-308448 – The block outline on banners is white.
- MC-308475 – The depth clear value is ignored in GlCommandEncoder.createRenderPass().
- MC-308476 – The timeout passed into glClientWaitSync is in milliseconds instead of nanoseconds.
- MC-308477 – The vertex buffer slot is hardcoded to 0 in VulkanRenderPass.drawMultipleIndexed().

From the previous development version
