Automatic Saves are the same as our existing Realm Backups, just a new name 😊 How many you can keep at a time depends on a couple factors, but it's around 11 or so. More info: help.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/art...

Manual Saves are new, and there's no limit to how long you can keep them around 😎

Er, "Manual Saves never age off like Automatic Saves (aka Backups) do" 😅

Automatic saves are the same thing as Backups now - every 30 minutes and at the end of sessions (e.g. when you switch slots, close the Realm, the Realm is idle for 5 min, etc). Manual saves have their own separate quota and never age off like Manual Saves do.

This is just more stuff for owners 😊

Coming soon to Previews/Betas 👀

Realms Saves! You'll be able to manually backup your Realm world at any point, even while playing. In case of unexpected mishaps, automatic saves will be stored every 30 minutes of gameplay.

The new Realms Saves screen showing tabs with manual and automatic saves. There are buttons to "Save active world" and "Learn more". A storage quota bar at the top shows "0.33MB of 10.0GB used"
