BedrockOnLinux: Minecraft Bedrock launcher released in version 2.2.9

BedrockOnLinux has been released in version v2.2.9.

It is a launcher that lets you install and play Minecraft Bedrock Edition on Linux.

New features include automatic backups of worlds, settings and servers before version changes, GPU selection for rendering, and self-updating .deb and .rpm packages.

Major Additions

  • Automatic Package Updates: .deb and .rpm packages now download, verify, and install updates independently rather than requiring manual downloads
  • BetterRTX Preset Manager: New tools for managing ray-tracing presets with version compatibility checks
  • Graphics Card Selection: Setting allows choosing which GPU renders Minecraft on multi-GPU systems
  • Bedrock Editor Integration: World-building tool now accessible directly from the launcher
  • Data Protection: Automatic backups of worlds, settings, and servers before version upgrades, with restoration capabilities

Notable Fixes

  • Fullscreen startup no longer appears stretched with misaligned mouse input
  • Microsoft sign-in now works on systems lacking EGL display support
  • New installations properly locate online-login components
  • Store build launches work without system Python installed
  • Interrupted backup restores no longer risk data loss
