The release date for Minecraft 1.21 isn’t confirmed, but it’s linked to combat and tinkering. New mobs like Breeze and Armadillo are expected. The update includes trial chambers, new blocks like copper and tuff, a special item called the crafter, and a trial key.
The update’s release is likely in June 2024 due to a yearly release cycle by Mojang. They want to avoid overpromising and underdelivering like in past updates. The name for Minecraft 1.21 isn’t final, but it will focus on combat and tinkering.
New mobs include the Breeze, a playful wind-controlling enemy found in Trial Chambers. It attacks with a wind charge and interacts with blocks. The Armadillo won the Mob Vote 2023 and will be a passive mob in the update, residing in the savanna biome.
There’s speculation about the addition of ducks in a future update but not confirmed for 1.21. No new biomes have been confirmed yet.
New features Minecraft 1.21 include Trial Chambers for exploration and combat, with varying rooms, traps, and rewards. The Trial Spawner adapts to the number of players and spawns specific mobs. The Trial Key, a mysterious item, can be found in the chambers.
New building blocks like copper and tuff will be introduced, along with a special light source called the Copper Bulb. The Crafter block allows automated crafting and acts as a container.
There’s a hint of a possible Minecraft Marketplace Pass subscription for exclusive content. The update aims to bridge feature differences between Java and Bedrock Editions.
