Minecraft Update Risk: Players Warned of Potential World Loss

Microsoft advises using the Gaming Services Repair Tool before updating to prevent data loss.

Microsoft warns Minecraft PC players against updating the game through the Xbox app due to a risk of losing their Minecraft worlds.
The issue was identified following the March 12th update, which inadvertently caused some players to lose their worlds.
Players are advised to use the Gaming Services Repair Tool for PC before installing the update to avoid this issue.
The problematic update introduced new features, including a new skeleton enemy and a Wind Charge ability, but also affected wolves by doubling their health.
Microsoft and Mojang are actively warning players through social media, forums, and in-game notifications to prevent further losses.
