As mentioned earlier today, Minecraft will be impacted by maintenance tonight. When it’s complete, a new patch should be out on both Switch and Wii U.

Among what’s due out today is the Glide Myths Track pack. A new “Stranges – Biome Settlers 3” Skin Pack is also incoming.

Full patch notes for both versions are below. 

One of the features Minecraft players on Nintendo consoles have been waiting for is the ability to transfer worlds from Wii U to Switch. Fortunately, the functionality isn’t too far off.

During an official live stream today, the world transfer feature was shown off for the first time. The team had hoped to have it ready for the Switch version’s launch, but they wanted to take the extra time to ensure that it worked perfectly.

Following last night’s maintenance, a new patch is out now for Minecraft on Switch and Wii U. Both platforms have had very fixes implemented.

Patch notes for both platforms are included below.
