Minecraft has revealed new details about its upcoming 1.20 update, which is now titled Trails and Tales.
The new version is set to introduce a handful of fresh features, including a new biome, a new friendly mob, and more. The developers said this expansion is “all about self-expression through representation, storytelling, and worldbuilding.”
Arguably the biggest addition is the Cherry Blossom Biome, a new biome bringing a matching colored wood set and leaves along with it. Pigs, sheep and bees will inhabit the Cherry Blossom areas.
Beyond that, Trails and Tales will introduce a new friendly mob in the form of camels. Players will be able to ride camels and use their Dash ability to cover ground quickly. Plus, two players can ride a singel camel at the same time. There’s also a brand new ancient animal called the Sniffer, which will sniff out buried seeds and help players find decorative plants.
The new items in Trails and Tales largely revolve around customization. Players will be able to create hanging signs, chiseled bookshelves, armor trims, and more to reflect their own personal style. The developers also hinted that the new archeology system could uncover “exciting hints of a forgotten past”, meaning this could be a lore-heavy expansion. Version 1.20 is set to come out sometime in 2023.
