I was skeptical, but several people in the replies to this post attached screenshots of the debug menus, so I knew this was most likely real. The download link was broken, but my friend happened to have reuploaded it before the original link broke.

Thanks to some people on the 4chan post, I knew how to install it. It’s as simple as installing the provided certificate file so that the package will be able to install and double clicking the appx Windows Store package, then installing. Here’s the installation screen.pic.twitter.com/qR7s6Tm32b

After waiting for a moment, it opened. It didn’t work in VirtualBox VMs, though I’m not sure if standard minecraft from the MS store would work either. Anyways, this is what I saw.pic.twitter.com/09kw1h7jEb

So now I decided to generate a world. Here’s some cool options I saw in the world creation screen. There was a toggle for Education Edition, several experiments, options for a flat nether (meaning a superflat-style nether), and the ability to set what biome I spawned intopic.twitter.com/Gpam2toa6I

So, I created the world. I went right back into the settings, and noticed these 3 categories that were specific to internal builds of minecraft.pic.twitter.com/pXKk8aPCSM

Here’s a bunch of options I saw in each. The last menu will be in the below reply because it didn’t fit here.pic.twitter.com/xB7e5CMcHA

I noticed a debug overlay option. It had several modes but one of them was literally just F3 from Java edition. Everything up until this point was kinda cool, but really?
They probably needed F3 for debugging but it’s really dumb that Mojang still keeps it private.pic.twitter.com/bNHniFlPRY

There was also an option to get the hitboxes from Java edition (F3+B), and a debug turtle setting that would pop up important logs next to a picture of a minecraft turtle when enabled, but it faded away too fast so I didn’t get a screenshot.pic.twitter.com/w3hjrqKcAK

Then, I saw a button for free minecoins. Unsurprisingly, it wasn’t very effective without being logged in to an account and I doubt it works without a Mojang employee’s account. I’m not signing in to find out

And finally I found there was an option to enable the debug button. This button is visible even outside of a world. When I clicked it, it opened this chat but obviously none of the commands were related to any world specific things because I wasn’t in one.pic.twitter.com/kDve2Nnod6

So, that’s about it. I guess the takeaway from this is that I should probably check in on the 4chan technology board once in a while since it’s been the source of nearly all the software leaks recently.
