For those unaware of this fantastic game, it is pertinent to note that Minecraft is among the best games you can find. Interestingly, it is ever-evolving and has managed to gain highly intriguing features over the years since its first launch. However, it is essential to note that the Minecraft game of today is very different from the Minecraft game of ten years ago or even 2020. For this reason, we will be introducing you to the Minecraft caves and Cliffs Update that is available. Before we delve into the Minecraft caves and Cliffs, bear in mind that there was a massive success with the Nether Update, and now Minecraft gamers will love the Minecraft caves and Cliffs Update.
More so, this Update will be making its debut in two distinct releases though under one theme and umbrella. This Minecraft caves and Cliffs Update will change the Minecraft game of 2021 dramatically. As stated above, Minecraft caves and Cliffs will make its debut in two parts this year. While the first Update made its debut on the 8th of June, the second Update will make its debut later at the year's ending. Note that the first Update was released as the Java edition 17.0 and the bedrock edition 1.17.0. This edition added some things such as:
- Copper
- Mobs
- New blocks, and even;
- Geodes
The second part will be released as the Java edition 1.18 and the bedrock edition 1.18.0. It will be providing gamers with:
- Depth limit
- Increased height
- Expanded caves
- New biomes, and of course;
- New Mountain generation.
Bear in mind that the debut of Minecraft caves and Cliffs update was made known during Minecraft Live 2020. As of the 14th of April 2021, Mojang studios made it known that Minecraft caves and cliffs will be divided into two updates. The reason for this division has to do with the complexity of the content and the amount. Also, the health of the team was put into consideration.
Minecraft Caves and Cliffs Update Part One
As mentioned earlier, the first part has already been released, and this was done on the 8th of June, 2021. Also known as the 1.17 version, it is smaller, and it is the less ambitious part of the bigger Minecraft caves and Cliffs Update to come. This part will be coming with lots of enhancements and features that players will ultimately love. Some of the new features to find in the Minecraft caves and Cliffs Update of the 1.17 version include:
