Just like PlayStation and Xbox users, you can also get the latest build on your Nintendo Switch/Switch 2 console.

Here's how you can get your hands on the Minecraft Bedrock 1.21.121 update and check out the changes made to the previous 1.21.120 Copper Age drop build:

Launch Minecraft on your preferred Switch/Switch 2 device.
Once the game opens, you will receive a notification for a new game update. Tap or select the pop-up at the top and wait for it to take you to the Nintendo eShop. Now, hit the Update button and add it to your device's download queue.

You can download and install the Minecraft Bedrock 1.21.121 update for Pocket Edition on all compatible Android and iOS mobile devices. It must be noted that most devices will have automatic updates enabled for games and applications to ensure that they use the latest available build.

Search for Minecraft on the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store. Once the Minecraft application page opens, you will notice that the Open/Play has been replaced by an "Update" button.
Select the Update button and ensure you have an active internet connection during the process to prevent file corruption.

During the download and installation, keep your device turned on and connected to the internet. This prevents data corruption and ensures your update is executed without any issues.

Windows 10/11 PCs

The Minecraft Bedrock 1.21.121 update can be downloaded directly using the official game launcher. Over the years, Mojang has turned it into a central access point to manage the Java and Bedrock variants and their various instances. It also lets you manage other spin-offs, like Legends and Dungeons, with ease.

By default, the Minecraft launcher is set to automatically check for updates and patches every time the application is run. If a newer version is found, it is downloaded and installed before the game starts. This ensures that the latest stable build is installed on your device.

However, you can install the latest Minecraft Bedrock 1.21.121 update on your Windows 10/11 PC manually as well:

If this is your first time playing Minecraft, head over to the Mojang website or click this link to head over to the download page and get your hands on the launcher.
Download the official executable file and install it in your preferred file directory. Once the launcher is installed, sign in with your registered Microsoft account to have it ready for use.
Now, open the launcher and select Minecraft: Bedrock Edition from the sidebar on the left.
Navigate to the left of the green Play button to the small drop-down tab.
Open the dropdown and select the "Latest Release" option from the list of available options.
Once done, just hit the green Play button and wait for the launcher to download the required update files for the Minecraft 1.21.121 update.

During the update, ensure you have a stable network and that your PC stays on. This prevents unnecessary corruptions or interruptions to your download.

After the files have downloaded, hit the green Play button again to load the game with the Minecraft Bedrock 1.21.121 update successfully installed.
