Trivia

minecraft/sounds/buzzwords/sound_name.oggwheresound_nameis replaced with the actual name of the sound, for exampleequipvr.ogg. - The update was released before April 1st by the developers.
- The overlay for the reality vision in the assets folder,
cantseeshitcaptain.png, is a reference to a popular meme from the TV show Star Trek.- This is a rare occurrence of official swearing in Minecraft.
- The shader for the reality vision can be disabled by using F4.
- However, when the player goes into third person view, the shader is activated again.
- This version was previously removed from the launcher for some time, but was added back in September 2018.
