For some reason my switch freezes when I press the home button going out of minecraft. I tried to restart my switch 5 times and it didnt do anything, I checked for corrupted data and there was none, and I tried to redownload it but it didnt stop freezing!!! Please fix this so I can play minecraft.

i have had the same issue

my temporary fix has been to be careful and not close minecraft until im done playing

this is the biggest bug in minecraft. you can hold the power button for 15 seconds to shut down your switch, then press the power button again to turn it on

I am a Minecraft Switch player and I've seen this. I even have video proof. This needs to be fixed!

Any Other Game (to proove that it is a Minecraft bug): https://youtu.be/9VODW7VMPOc

Every time I try to play with the new update my game crashes around 5 min after loading up the game.

I can not play. After a few minutes of play, it freezes and is unresponsive. When you want to close Minecraft, it leaves the console frozen and you have to forcibly shut it down.
This should be fixed soon!

Thank you for your report!
