Minecraft Installer

Play Minecraft: Java Edition on Linux. This snap installs the official Minecraft launcher and keeps it up to date, and from 15.0 it can set up mods for you too.

The Minecraft launcher, ready to play

Minecraft itself isn't included: you sign in with the Microsoft account you bought Minecraft with, and the launcher downloads the game.

New here? Start at the top

  1. Installing: get the snap from App Center or a terminal
  2. First Start: open it and sign in
  3. Playing: choose a version, make a world
  4. Playing on a Server: join friends, family or a public server
  5. Mods: install Fabric and add mods, including ones a server needs
  6. Voice Chat and Microphone
