Minecraft 1.16.5 Release Candidate 1

A Minecraft Java Release Candidate

We're now releasing 1.16.5 Release Candidate 1, which addresses two critical stability issues. If no further critical issues are found, we plan to release 1.16.5 on Friday. We hope to release another Caves & Cliffs snapshot next week. 

Happy mining!
