As of beta version 1.17.30.21, only two of the three cave biomes have been introduced: Lush caves and Dripstone caves. They were added to the game in beta version 1.17.20.22.

Mojang has also added five new mountain sub biomes (Mountain Meadow, Mountain Grove, Snowy Slopes, Lofty Peaks, and Snow Capped Peaks) in beta 1.16.220.50. The world height has been increased from 255 to 319 blocks.

Sculk sensors made their way to the bedrock edition of Minecraft in beta 1.16.210.56, and its texture was changed to match Java Edition in version 1.17.10.20.

Goat horns were added to the bedrock edition in version 1.16.200.52, but players can access them using the experimental gameplay feature. Sadly, bundles have not been introduced to the bedrock edition yet.

How can players install beta versions on their android devices?

To be able to play beta versions of Minecraft, players need to opt-in for the beta program. This can be done by following these steps:

Step 1: Navigate to the Google Play Store.

Step 2: Search for Minecraft.

Step 3: Select Minecraft and locate the "Join beta" option. Then players need to click on "Join."

Players must note that these versions could be unstable for some users because joining the beta program will replace their current game with a version of Minecraft that is still under development.

Beta version players will not be able to access realms, and the worlds created in the beta cannot be opened in older versions.
