Fact Checked by 
Minecraft remains, undoubtedly one of the most important video games ever made. From playing the alpha back in 2011 (although a previous iteration goes back as far as 2009 when the game was simply known as Cave Game), the game has changed so much, and yet so little.
The basic premise is the same, get lost and create in an amazing blocky world where you are free to do just about anything the imagination lets you, have a look at this for inspriation. Along the way we have had new monsters, creatures, and blocks added, but they just add to the tools you have to work with, and the latest version of Minecraft, v 1.21 will bring even more to the table.
When will Minecraft 1.21 be released?
Minecraft 1.21 will release for everybody on June 13th. Mojang has confirmed that after months of testing, this is the date the update should go live bring all its new content with it.
What’s new in Minecraft 1.21?
Let’s take a look at what we know will be coming so far via a series of previews.
New blocks
It looks as though we will be getting three new blocks to play with, and while that may not sound like a lot, the amount of changes to the entire world that three new blocks can bring is almost uncalculatable.
The blocks are:
Crafter: A new redstone-powered automatic crafting station. Think of it as a 3D printer that you can leave and hope everything has worked by the time you get back.
Trial Spawner: Not one for those of you who like to play on Peaceful, the Trial Spawner will spawn enemies that reward you with loot.
Copper bulb: A new light-source block, garnished with a copper trim.
New Mobs
Again, if you play Minecraft on Peaceful or Creative modes you are unlikely to concern yourself with the two new mobs that are incoming but for mainline players, here’s what we know.
Armadillo
You will find Armadillos in warm biomes and if you kill them they will drop their tough armored skin, which you can then use to craft into your own defensive clothing.
The Breeze
More of a traditionally weird Minecraft mob, the Breeze is a purple-bodied creature with a head made of wind – a bit like a Tornado. It deals wind damage that explodes and will take a chunk off your health bar.
What is the Trial Chamber?
The Trial Chamber is where you find the aforementioned Trial Spawner. Enter the Trial Chamber to face tough challenges and be rewarded with loot. Or die and lose all your best gear. It will be one or the other for sure.
New biomes in 1.21
No news as to whether there will be any new biomes in the release but these aren’t always highlighted. Minecraft did just drop things such as Sakura cherry blossoms out of the blue, so it would almost be a surprise if there was not something new to stumble upon.
