Tell your Minecraft launcher to pin the latest version of Minecraft, “release 1.20.4,” and sign on for some adventure!

The latest version of Minecraft brings performance enhancements to the network stack—particularly for slow or lossy connections. It also changes the “reach” rules for mobs that want to make you dead, so go ahead and ride that camel through the zombie apocalypse to safety. No, this doesn't make any sense to me either. Yes, this would have made an interesting alternative ending to Night of the Living Dead (Romero, 1968).

Users are advised to read the official changelogs for:

• Minecraft 1.20.2
• Minecraft 1.20.4

What happened to 3? I don't know, and we'll probably have to wait until 5 to find out.
