Minecraft is officially supported on Linux through deb or snap here: https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/download/alternative

Unofficial some one packaged it up as a flatpak which can be found here: https://flathub.org/apps/com.mojang.Minecraft

It can also be installed officially via flat hub here: https://flathub.org/apps/org.prismlauncher.PrismLauncher
