Minecraft 1.19

We ran it through VirusTotal — came back clean across all 70+ scanners. The APK signature checks out as valid Mojang certificate. That said, always double-check permissions after you install. Minecraft needs storage access (for saving worlds) and network access (for multiplayer). If it asks for your contacts or SMS... something's wrong. The file here is 164.57 MB, which matches the official Bedrock Edition size.

You'll need Android 4.4 (KitKat) or higher. That covers pretty much any phone made after 2013. Performance-wise, you want at least 2GB of RAM for smooth gameplay. Older devices might run it but expect some lag, especially when exploring new chunks or dealing with lots of mobs on screen. The Deep Dark biome with all its Sculk blocks can be demanding.

Short answer: don't fight it. Seriously. The Warden can kill you in two hits even with full Netherite armor. It reacts to sound — walking, breaking blocks, even opening chests triggers it. Your best bet is sneaking (Shift key) and moving slowly. Wool blocks don't make noise when you walk on them or place them. If you trigger a Sculk Shrieker four times, the Warden spawns. At that point, just run.

Yes, but with a catch. Your existing explored areas stay the same — you won't suddenly find Deep Dark biomes under your base. New features only generate in chunks you haven't explored yet. So to find the Warden, Ancient Cities, and Mangrove Swamps, you'll need to venture into uncharted territory. Your builds, items, and progress carry over just fine though. Back up your worlds before updating, just to be safe.

The download is about 165 MB, but the game grows as you play. Every time you explore a new area, Minecraft generates and saves those chunks to your device. After a few weeks of active playing — especially if you're into long-distance exploration — you might see the game folder hit 500 MB to 1 GB. Resource packs and texture packs add to this. To free up space, you can delete old worlds you're not using anymore from the game's settings.
