Minecraft Next Game Update Includes Adorable Baby Animal Updates

The Minecraft team has announced updates for baby farm animals, giving them distinct looks and personalities instead of being scaled-down versions of adults. Notable enhancements include new models and unique sounds for baby mobs such as wolf pups, kittens, baby chickens, rabbits, piglets, lambs, calves, and baby ocelots. The baby mobs will feature one-pixel eyes, creating a more adorable appearance. Players can craft name tags for these mobs using paper and metal nuggets, enhancing personalization. Additionally, players can use spawn eggs on adult mobs to create baby versions in the Bedrock Edition. Early access to these features is available through snapshots for Java Edition and previews/beta for Bedrock Edition. The official release date is not confirmed, but it is anticipated to follow a similar timeline to last year's major update in March.

3 secret Minecraft mechanics you probably didn’t know | Esports News

The Southeast Rule in Minecraft causes entities spawned from spawn eggs to face south or east, and players are oriented in the same direction upon entering a new world. TNT cannons also achieve greater distances when aimed in these directions. Quasi-connectivity allows players to power blocks like droppers and pistons without a direct Redstone signal, enabling power to be received from blocks diagonally above or two spaces away. The Crawling function lets players move through one-block gaps without breaking surrounding blocks by transitioning into a prone position when positioned under a trapdoor or in a one-block space. This feature has been available in the Java edition for some time and was introduced to the Bedrock version in 2023.

Minecraft’s never going free-to-play because as it stands it’s ‘the best deal in the world’

Mojang introduced new sophisticated shaders for Minecraft, set to enhance the visual experience in 2025. The standard "Java and Bedrock" edition of Minecraft is priced at £20, with various deluxe editions, skins, and texture packs available. Two optional subscriptions, Marketplace Pass and Realms Plus, offer additional customization and multiplayer experiences, but the base purchase provides a complete gaming experience. Mojang emphasizes accessibility and a commitment to maintaining the game's core experience without aggressive monetization. A parent noted that Minecraft became the sole game played on their child's Switch after purchasing it for £20. Mojang's representatives confirmed that there is no pressure from Microsoft to explore new monetization strategies. Game director Agnes Larsson highlighted the cultural significance and community ethos of Minecraft. The latest update, "Spring to Life," is available for free and introduces new ambient features, mob variants, and minigames inspired by an upcoming movie adaptation.
