1.3 is the first and only pre-release for Java Edition 1.3.1, released on July 26, 2012.[1]

Unlike most versions, which have such content automatically stripped out, this version contains unused (but obfuscated) code for many unimplemented features, such as a biome previewer, prototype villages, and content relating to unimplemented entities and some aspects of world generation.
