About this video: Minecraft is one of those games where, in many ways, it is just as fun to play older versions as it is to play newer versions of Minecraft. Because of this, it is good to know how to play any version of Minecraft that you want. That can be brand new versions, or it can be old alpha and beta versions of Minecraft. The choice is really up to you and what you want to do with Minecraft. So, without anymore delay, here is how to play old versions of Minecraft using the vanilla Minecraft launcher.
To get started, we need to simply open up the Minecraft launcher. Everything will be ran through the default Minecraft launcher. It is worth nothing, however, that bugs do exist, and that these old versions will have issues. Many of which were patched in later versions. That is the downside about playing legacy Minecraft versions.
Nevertheless, once the Minecraft launcher is open, click on ‘Settings’ in the bottom right. Then, in the general tab, make sure the box next to ‘Show historical versions of Minecraft: Java Edition in the Launcher’ is checked. This is needed in order to play older Minecraft versions.
From there, select Minecraft Java Edition in the launcher and click ‘Installations’ at the top. When you are in installations, make sure all three check boxes under ‘Versions’ towards the top left of the launcher are checked. This will allow you to have access to all Minecraft versions ever released.
Then, click on ‘New Installation’. You can name this installation anything that you want. However, naming it the Minecraft versions you want can make things easier. Next, click the drop-down box under ‘Version’. Here, you will be able to select the version of Minecraft you want. Scroll all the way down to the bottom to find one of the first Minecraft versions. Scroll up from there to find alpha, beta, and finally release 1.0 when Minecraft officially came out. It doesn’t matter what version you want to play. They are all here.
With the version you want selected, click the green ‘Create’ button in the bottom right. You will now have the Minecraft version you want. Hover over the version you created in the installations tab and click the green Play button. You will then need confirm you are playing an older version of Minecraft by clicking the green ‘Play’ button in the window that appears.
Finally, the old Minecraft version you want to play will open up! If you have any questions about how to play Minecraft beta versions, let us know in the comments. We are happy to help.
