After a few months of relative hibernation, Minecraft is back in the spotlight with the arrival of update 1.19. A massive addition of content that we detail for you in depth.
[Mis à jour le 7 juin 2022 à 10h30] After the biggest update ever introduced on Minecraft that was patch 1.18, Minecraft will once again be upset by the arrival of update 1.19. The Wild therefore succeeds Caves and Cliffs, and offers us in a way the second half of the great makeover of Minecraft. There are two brand new biomes to discover, which are added to the complete overhaul of the world generation system of 1.18, a new terrifying opponent, and some new animals. What to prepare for a new dive into the cubic world alone or with friends, for the release of 1.19, which is available since this Tuesday, June 7.
Version 1.19 The Wild arrived this Tuesday in Minecraft, the opportunity for us to give you a complete overview of its new features. Among these, we mainly find the addition of two new biomes, which bring us new blocks, but also new animals:
- Mangroves, which are a complete overhaul of the swamp biome. The latter will therefore have two variants where you can discover new blocks, including mangrove wood and mud in particular, but also many new animals, such as tadpolesthem fireflies and the frogs.
- The caves of the depths, where growths capable of detecting sounds grow. This dangerous place will be the lair of a terrifying new monster: the Guardian. Blind but incredibly powerful, he is one of the greatest dangers in Minecraft, a constant threat that adds a little spice to explorations of the great depths. A welcome addition, which may remind Minecraft veterans of the terror of the first nights spent in the game.
Of course, we can also find new blocks in the game, such as mud and mud bricks, while the deep caves biome contains very special blocks, sculks. These are relatively invasive, come in three variations, and can be used with redstone. They can also be used as motion detectors, but be careful, if you put your foot in the wrong place on these blocks, you could attract the attention of a Guardian. But that’s not all, a new animal is entering the game, it’s the Allay, a winged creature capable of carrying large quantities of blocks. The Allay is the creature that received the most votes from the public during Minecraft Live 2021.
This was also one of the announcements from the Minecraft Live 2021 conference. Minecraft has made its way into Xbox Game Pass. A logical decision when you look at the links that unite Mojang and Microsoft. Not one, but two editions of Minecraft are available in Xbox Game Pass, Minecraft Java Edition and Minecraft Bedrock Edition. This bundle has been available in Microsoft’s subscription service since November 2, and also includes crossplay elements so that you can share your games with console and PC players.
