Nightly 2026-11-13 · 9f42064
Want to play? Download the Horizon launcher.
Do NOT run the files below. They will not work on their own.
The launcher installs this version and keeps it up to date. You need your own copy of Minecraft: Java Edition. The files below are what the launcher installs, and the dedicated server for people who host one.
Nightly 2026-11-13 · 9f42064: main (9f42064), built from nightly/build-2026-11-13-1 (9f42064).
Source: commit 9f42064, kept for good as the tag nightly-source/2026-11-13-9f42064; horizon-source.tar.gz is its tree. Native mods built for this Nightly pin that commit.
The launcher installs it by itself; your worlds stay as they are. A Nightly can include pull requests the Team picked before they are merged (below). Report bugs with the version the game shows ("Nightly · ").
