Something we previously believed would never happen.

Giving players the ability to see chunk lines and light levels in game as well as allowing for truly beautiful visual effects. Sadly however, with the introduction of Minecraft's new Render Dragon engine, shaders were no longer a customisation option that could be added to the game, until now...

Fri, 06 May 2022 09:00:00 +0000 https://foxynotail.com/minecraft-news/23/mojang-getting-ready-to-release-minecraft-1.19 https://foxynotail.com/minecraft-news/21/minecraft-shuts-down-the-beta-program Minecraft is a game that thrives on player feedback for development. For years both Minecraft JAVA Edition and Minecraft Bedrock Edition have given players early access to new features and updates during their development cycles alongside the stable release of the main game. However, it’s not all been plain sailing, especially for Minecraft Bedrock edition. Thu, 05 May 2022 09:00:00 +0000 https://foxynotail.com/minecraft-news/21/minecraft-shuts-down-the-beta-program https://foxynotail.com/minecraft-news/22/minecraft-beta-1.19.0.30-wild-update The wait is almost over. Minecraft’s The Wild Update is just around the corner as the Beta’s move from introducing new features, to concentrating on bug fixes. On the 4th of May 2022, Minecraft Beta 1.19.0.30 for Bedrock Edition was released with a whole host of tweaks and bug fixes as well as some more information and documentation on the now experimental Spectator Mode.

Wed, 04 May 2022 09:00:00 +0000 https://foxynotail.com/minecraft-news/19/minecraft-music-discs-are-broken https://foxynotail.com/minecraft-news/20/new-bedrock-secret-feature-brings-us-one-step-closer-building-on-the-nether-roof A feature that didn’t get mentioned in any of their recent Minecraft Bedrock change logs brings dimension settings and build height options to Minecraft Bedrock Edition add-ons. Do you wish you could build on the Nether roof in Bedrock edition like they do on JAVA edition? Well now we’re officially one step closer to being able to do that.

Well it’s Minecraft’s new mini-boss of sorts, designed to be almost unkillable to force players to play stealthily within the Ancient Cities which are new areas to play and explore that are found inside of the brand new Deep Dark biomes.

With Minecraft 1.19 likely only a month or two away, we're finally getting towards the end of what feels like an incredibly long development process for the 1.19 Wild Update.
