+# 5.18.0
+Released 16th August 2024.
+
+**For Minecraft: Bedrock Edition 1.21.20**
+
+This is a support release for Minecraft: Bedrock Edition 1.21.20.
+
+**Plugin compatibility:** Plugins for previous 5.x versions will run unchanged on this release, unless they use internal APIs, reflection, or packages like the `pocketmine\network\mcpe`  or `pocketmine\data` namespace.
+Do not update plugin minimum API versions unless you need new features added in this release.
+
+**WARNING: If your plugin uses the `pocketmine\network\mcpe` namespace, you're not shielded by API change constraints.**
+Consider using the `mcpe-protocol` directive in `plugin.yml` as a constraint if you're using packets directly.
+
+## General
+- Added support for Minecraft: Bedrock Edition 1.21.20.
+- Removed support for earlier versions.
+
+## Fixes
+- Use `VISIBLE_MOB_EFFECTS` actor metadata property to send effect bubbles, this fixes effect bubbles not showing
