For the first time in years, players will have new default skins from which to choose. Separate from the actual 1.20 update but connected in theme, Minecraft's infamous Steve and Alex default characters are about to gain some new friends.
Mojang Studios is responding to community feedback, and now only intends to reveal features and content that are far along in development and have little chance of being delayed or abandoned. Both the Caves & Cliffs Update and The Wild Update were mired in controversy due to a number of announced features that were later delayed or canceled, such as archaeology, birch forest improvements, and fireflies. According to the creators behind the legendary survival game, this update is all about making Minecraft 'Minecraftier.' This time around, though, Mojang Studios is approaching Minecraft's next content update a little differently.Ī major change that Mojang Studios is enacting with the Minecraft 1.20 update is in how it announces features. The focus of this update is player expression, representation, and creativity, with Mojang Studios wanting to add features that allow players to more effectively play how they want, while being whoever they want.
During Minecraft Live 2022, Mojang Studios took the wraps of Minecraft 1.20, the currently unnamed content update heading to all vanilla Minecraft players at some point in 2023.
