Please note – these will not be included in the main 1.18 release, but are being included as Experiments so that we can continue to develop these features and gather your feedback.

(Please check out the latest Java Edition Snapshot article too!) As always, we really appreciate all the feedback you send to aka.ms/CavesCliffsFeedback and please report any bugs you may find at. While you test out all the new features in this beta and report all the bugs you can find, I’m going to pen a ballad about the new deep dark blocks that will be haunting in all senses of the word. I was just practicing my scales so that I can harmonise with the new music that was added this week! In fact, I think that even more is in order. To join or leave the beta, see aka.ms/JoinMCBeta for detailed instructionsĭo, re, mi, fa, so, la, ti, beeeeeta! Oh, hello.
