On Linux, it's recommended to use your package manager for installing Java. Also, to download Oracle Java 9+ you need an Oracle account which is not a good thing.
You can also use Oracle Java, but openjdk is better here. Azul Zulu is a popular alternative to Temurin, and will work just as well.
NOTE: You can use any OpenJDK build you want. If you aren't sure which version you will need, it is recommended to just install both. Minecraft 1.17 and upwards will require Temurin 17 (LTS), while anything below will require Temurin 8 (LTS).
As such, until Java downloading is implemented, you will need to manually install Java to run Minecraft with Prism Launcher.Ĭurrently, we recommend heading over to Adoptium to install the latest versions of Java. Java is required in order to run Minecraft.
