What you need to know
- Minecraft Preview testers are being blessed with a new build containing exciting feature additions and changes.
- A new Minecraft 1.20 feature allowing mob heads to interact with note blocks to make mob noises is here.
- Stripped bamboo blocks also join Minecraft Preview with this release, alongside dozens of other changes and fixes.
- Minecraft Preview 1.19.60.20 is now available to players on all platforms, except for iOS.
It’s Wednesday, and that means it’s time for a new Minecraft Preview build. Mojang Studios has some goodies in store for testing players with today’s build, as experimental Minecraft 1.20 features get some new friends and welcome changes. The usual slate of bug fixes and technical tweaks is also included in this Preview release.
Players will be most interested in brand-new Minecraft 1.20 features, such as the new interaction between mob heads and note blocks that was recently tested on PC before the latest Minecraft: Java Edition snapshot released on Tuesday. With the feature, players will now be able to recreate various mob noises by placing mob head blocks on top of note blocks.
Stripped bamboo, blocks of bamboo, and chiseled bookshelf sounds also join the Minecraft Preview feature set with this release. It’s still early days for Minecraft 1.20, but it’s exciting to watch Mojang Studios introduce new features and updates as we progress. Players can now test the latest Minecraft Preview build, although it should be noted that this release is not available on iOS (it is still available for Xbox, PC, and Android players).
Minecraft still firmly holds on to its place among the best Xbox games, although many in the community are waiting to see how ambitious Minecraft 1.20 will be. Mojang Studios is intent on working with the community throughout the development of Minecraft’s next content update, and have themed it around representation and player expression, but there’s still a long ways to go before the final update is release.
