Minecraft is one the few video games that runs on the Linux platform. We've previously discussed how to play Minecraft under Linux. We showed you how to manually download the Jar package and install Java to get the game running.

The old tutorial on how to play Minecraft is no longer relevant. The standalone Jar file can't be downloaded anymore. As of now, if you want to continue enjoying Minecraft on Linux, you need to download the new Minecraft launcher for Linux from Mojang. In this tutorial, we will show you how install the new launcher to get Minecraft to work. Let's get started!
Download installer
Mojang has put the new Minecraft launcher for Linux on their website. Go to Minecraft.net to download the new Minecraft launcher for Linux. Log in to your existing account or create a new one if necessary.
After logging in to your Mojang account on the website, find the "back to Minecraft.net" button at the top and click it to return to the home page of the website. Click the menu button at the top, then click the green button under "download".
The website will automatically detect your operating system and recommend the best download option for you Linux OS.
There are many different download options for the new Minecraft launcher for Linux, including a DEB package, and a community AUR package. Follow the instructions below to download your Linux OS.
Mojang has created an installable DEB package to support Ubuntu and Debian users. It's an excellent way to get the game running, as the package pulls in Java, and everything you'll need to enjoy the game with no fuss. To get your copy of the new launcher, look on the download page for "Desktops", and click on the "Linux" option.
After clicking on "Linux", the website will automatically detect that you need the DEB. If not, the direct link is here.
Install the DEB package on your Ubuntu Linux or Debian PC, and then proceed to the setup section.
Mojang has linked to an official AUR package for getting Minecraft working on Arch Linux. Install the Trizen AUR helper to get it. Use the Pacman package manager for both the Base-devel, and Git packages.
Next, grab the code for the Trizen AUR helper. Getting this app will make getting Minecraft working way easier.
Install the Trizen app.
With the Trizen app working on Arch, move down to the setup section of this tutorial.
Snap
The developers of Minecraft have a generic TarGZ archive on the download page for Linux users, which enables everyone, even those not using Ubuntu, Debian or Arch Linux to get the app working. Unfourtunately, that method is tedious, so it's great to see that the new Minecraft launcher for Linux is on the Snap store.
To download Minecraft from the Snap store, you must first enable Snapd on your system. To do that, head over to this tutorial here and follow the instructions specific to your Linux distribution. Once you are done, proceed to the setup section.
Flatpak
Minecraft is on Flathub as a Flatpak, so if you are running a distribution that supports it, you'll be able to quickly grab the game. Flatpak will allow you to download Minecraft. For more information, please visit this page.
Once the Flatpak runtime is up and running on your distribution, you'll have to set up Flathub, so that the Minecraft package is accessable. To enable Flathub, open up a terminal and enter the command below.
Once the Flathub repo is up and running, you can proceed to the setup section to complete the installation.
Install the installer
Now that we have shown you how to download the Minecraft installer package for different Linux distributions it is time to install the package to your system. Open a terminal window, and follow the instructions to get it working on the Linux operating system you are using.
Ubuntu/Debian
To get the new launcher working on Ubuntu and Debian PCs, use the CD command to move to the "Downloads" directory.
Once inside the "Downloads" folder, run the dpkg tool to install the package.
After the initial package installation, you may run into some dependency issues. Fix this with:
Arch Linux
Setting up Trizen is the most difficult part of getting Minecraft to run on Arch Linux. Now that you've got the tool ready to go, it's one simple command to install the new Minecraft launcher. Enter the following command into a terminal.
