Minecraft 1.20 update: Features, theme, and everything we know
For over a decade, Minecraft has dominated the video game industry and topped sales charts. The creative-survival classic's undeniable success is due, in no small part, to the combined efforts of the bustling Minecraft community and the post-launch support of Mojang Studios. Now, players know the first details of what's coming next to Minecraft with the arrival of the 1.20 update.
Dedicated to player expression, representation, and making Minecraft "Minecraftier," Minecraft 1.20 may end up being an excellent update for Minecraft across Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, PC, and mobile devices. Here's everything we know about the upcoming content release, including what features will be included and when players can expect the update to arrive.
Revealed during Minecraft Live 2022, the Minecraft 1.20 update is the next major content update following 2022's 1.19 "The Wild Update" release. Mojang Studios has already detailed the initial features of the highly anticipated mean update, but changes to how the studio approaches Minecraft releases means a less exciting announcement and a more interesting development cycle.
