So I think I saw that they were releasing a new update on feb. 25,2016. Now it's the 27th. I saw Youtubers playing on it(snapshot?). This is my first Minecraft update so I'm kind of confused on how it suppose to work and I went to the official mc website and that just confused me more. So can someone please help me?
Was there a new Minecraft pc update? If so, how do I get it?

The latest version is 1.8.9 as of December 2015. 1.9 is due on the 29th of Feb 2016.
'Snapshot' versions are experimental development versions. They get released very often, something like two per week. They are what the devs are working on currently for the upcoming versions, they are publically available but need a bit of work to install, and also they are not necessarily stable, they might crash a lot, etc.
