Minecraft announces a scary new Biome and Mob update

Mojang is celebrating all things Minecraft this weekend with its own ‘Minecraft Live’ stream, and as part of this, it’s shared new details about what’s on the way for the survival game in the future.

For starters, a new biome has been revealed. It’s officially titled “The Pale Garden” and “evokes strange and eerie feelings.” Alongside this is “The Creaking” – a new tree-like mob. Instead of damaging it directly, you’ll need to target the squeaky heart block that controls this mob and is hiding somewhere in the biome.

“By day, the Pale Garden is quiet, but as night falls, the biome takes on an eerie mood. This eerie feeling may turn into fear when you meet the Squeak! Dare to look at this hostile mob and he will freeze in place. Attack him directly and your blows will have no effect.” effect, you’ll need to look for the squeaky heart block to have a chance at survival.

This new biome will also be filled with all kinds of creepy sound effects and creepy ringtones. This also includes a new collection of pale oak and suspended moss.

Additionally, Mojang will be adding Power Mode to Bedrock and Bundles (which allow you to collect more crafting supplies) in a new “drop” update titled Bundles of Bravery.

“The Bundles of Bravery game drop brings Hardcore Mode to Bedrock Edition (It already exists in java) As well as packages (Coming for all versions). The latter will help you maintain a clean inventory no matter how you choose to play. Join Stephen and Matthew as they explain why these features are important for all types of players and what you can expect when they arrive in the near future.
