Minecraft Is Getting “twice As A Lot Java”

Another week, one other Minecraft snapshot.  53vv  are giving us an concept of what to anticipate for both parts of the large Caves and Cliffs update, however snapshot 21w19a is more about taking things away than adding them. There is one large change to make be aware of here - Minecraft is getting “twice as much Java”.

Minecraft is getting updated from Java 8 (first released in 2014) to the rather more fashionable Java 16. If you’re utilizing the default launcher, you’ll routinely get the Java version you need. There won’t be any main seen changes here, however this replace might improve your Java Edition performance, and can make issues considerably easier for modders going ahead.

This snapshot also removes the sculk sensor, bundles, and candles which have been applied in previous releases. The devs describe these as “unfinished” - so that you in all probability shouldn’t expect to see them return even in snapshot kind until the run-as much as half two of the Minecraft 1.17 release date.
