      You guys really need to fix how the game saves. If I didn't keep creating a backup of my game saves after every hour of gameplay, I would have lost my 2+-year-old world several times.

      Whenever there is a power outage, the game will ALWAYS get corrupted and be deleted. This never happens on any other game I have, just Minecraft.
      I don't know what coding or protocol you use for Minecraft game saving, but it currently sucks. I have had to RAGE QUIT my game for weeks on end because I forgot to duplicate my game save after several hours of gameplay and builds, only to lose all the hours of work because the game save file gets corrupted and deleted after a power outage.

      This isn't something new either. You all know that this problem exists. Why haven't you fixed this?

      PS4, PS5 Bedrock. Current version.

      Steps to Reproduce:
      1. load world and play for several hours
      2. Wait for a power outage - or pull the plug.
      3. Try and load saved world, then Rage Quit game.

      Observed Results:
      Spend several hours building things, then the power goes out. The power comes back on and turn on the PS5 and loads the Minecraft game. Go to load the world file and get an error saying the file is corrupted and the file gets deleted.

      Expected Results:
      Expect to load Minecraft and up again and open the saved world and be back at the last save point.
