Mojang released Minecraft Bedrock hotfix 26.62 on all platforms, a small download for consoles, PC, and mobile. The hotfix follows a feature-packed Minecraft Bedrock patch released one week earlier.

Why it matters

The hotfix addresses block selection, memory-pressure stability on Xbox, a Nintendo Switch 2 rendering crash, and a Realms purchase sync issue. Several other problems remain unresolved, including camera input lag, addons failing to load, and shulker boxes disappearing.

The hotfix arrived one week after the prior patch, with version 26.62 paired with update 1.063 for download. Known problems such as camera input lag, addon loading failures, and disappearing shulker boxes have not been addressed.

The players

Mojang

Mojang is the Stockholm-based game studio behind Minecraft, which it developed and maintains for players across multiple platforms.

The details

The hotfix resolves a block selection bug that blocked interaction with entities inside blocks, improves Xbox stability under heavy memory use, and fixes a Nintendo Switch 2 crash when rendering scenes with many objects. It also corrects a cloud sync setting that could overwrite Realms purchase configuration values.

Timeline

  1. - November 6, 2026: Minecraft Bedrock hotfix 26.62 released on all platforms.

Roadmap

Mojang's pattern of pairing a large Bedrock patch with a rapid follow-up hotfix across all platforms continues here. The quick turnaround reflects the studio's effort to stabilize Bedrock releases on consoles, PC, and mobile simultaneously.

Players on Xbox, Nintendo Switch 2, PC, and mobile can download the small hotfix to address crashes and interaction bugs. Realms subscribers may notice fewer purchase-related configuration problems after updating.

The takeaway

Updating to hotfix 26.62 can resolve several stability and Realms issues, though players should watch for ongoing camera lag and addon problems. Keeping the game current helps avoid crashes on newer hardware.
