Mojang is celebrating all things Minecraft this weekend with its special ‘Minecraft Live’ broadcast, and as part of this, new details are being shared about what’s coming next for the survival crafting game.
For starters, a new biome has been revealed. It’s officially called ‘The Pale Garden’ and “evokes creepy and creepy feelings”. In addition, there is ‘The Creaking’ – a new tree-like crowd. Instead of damaging it directly, focus on the cracking heart block that controls this mob and is hidden somewhere in the biome.
“During the day, the pale garden is peaceful, but when night falls, the biome takes on an eerie mood. And that eerie feeling can turn to fear if you encounter the squatting! Dare to look at this hostile crowd and it will be in place freeze Attack it directly and your swipes will have no effect.
This new biome will also be filled with all kinds of creepy sound effects and pale tones. This also includes a new light oak set and hanging moss.
Additionally, Mojang is adding Hardcore mode to Bedrock and Bundles (which let you collect even more crafting supplies) in a new ‘drop’ update titled Bundles of Bravery.
“The Bundles of Bravery game drop brings hardcore mode to Bedrock Edition (it’s already in Java) but also bundles (coming to all editions). The latter will help you keep a clean inventory no matter how you play. Join Stephen and Matthew as they explain why these features are so important for all types of players and what you can expect when they arrive in the near future.”
The new biome and mob will be “coming soon” with snapshots, previews and betas, and the Bundles of Bravery drop is also arriving in the future. You can watch the full Minecraft Live 2024 broadcast on the Minecraft YouTube channel.
Mojang also shared an in-depth session on the Pale Garden update, which you can watch in the video below:
