This update is for the game's Bedrock Edition and focuses on improving the reliability of Realms connection. Realms is a service that is dependent on the game’s servers. Problems have plagued Microsoft’s servers in recent times and the Realms server issue could be a trickle-down effect of the former.

Mojang Studios has previously released the 1.21.20 update for Bedrock with some major changes and improvements. Most new items like the vaults, wind charge, and mobs such as the bogged and the breeze got some major improvements alongside a ton of stability fixes.
