Components

• The minecraft:rideable component now has three new additional fields:
  • dismount_mode defines where riders are placed when dismounting the entity:
    • default, riders are placed on a valid ground position around the entity, or at the center of the entity's collision box if none is found.
    • on_top_center, riders are placed at the center of the top of the entity's collision box.
  • on_rider_enter_event, defines the event to execute on the owner entity when an entity starts riding it.
  • on_rider_exit_event, defines the event to execute on the owner entity when an entity stops riding it.
• Content errors will log missing texture references in the minecraft:icon item component.
• The minecraft:rideable component's Seat definition now has two additional fields:
  • third_person_camera_radius can be used to set a different camera radius when in third person or third person front camera. The value needs to be in the range [1.0, 64.0]. Value 0.0 is ignored.
  • camera_relax_distance_smoothing adds springiness to the camera movement when the camera moves back to its radius after being pushed closer to the player by and obstacle. A higher value means a stiffer spring. The value needs to be in the range [1.0, 32.0]. Value 0.0 is ignored.
• The minecraft:leashable component now support multiple presets:
  • A list of presets can be defined in the new presets field.
  • Each preset determines how the entity behaves when leashed to another entity.
  • A preset is selected when the entity is leashed and remains active until it is leashed to something else.
  • The first preset whose filter conditions are met will be applied.
  • If no presets match, a default configuration is used instead.
  • The following fields are now part of each preset:
    • filter: Defines the condition that selects this preset out of all the presets upon leashing.
    • soft_distance: Distance at which the spring effect begins.
    • hard_distance: Distance at which the leash stiffens.
    • max_distance: Distance at which the leash breaks.
    • can_be_stolen: Determines if a player can steal the leashed entity using a lead.
• Added validation for block asset references in components.
  • Content errors will log missing block references for the following components:
    • item component minecraft:digger
    • item component minecraft:entity_placer
    • item component minecraft:block_placer
    • spawn rules component minecraft:spawns_on_block_filter
    • spawn rules component minecraft:spawns_on_block_prevented_filter

• Introduced a drop_item_y_offset parameter to the minecraft:interact component.
  • Defines a custom y-axis offset for when an item is dropped.
  • Requires drop_item_slot to be specified.
• The minecraft:leashable component's on_unleash trigger triggers on the leash breaking with format version 1.21.80 and later.
  • The old behavior is still available to opt in to by setting on_unleash_interact_only to true.
• Content errors will log missing entity references in the minecraft:entity_placer and minecraft:projectile item components.

Documentation

Entity Filters

• Added new entity filter has_equipment_tag, works like has_equipment but takes an item tag instead of an item name.

General

• Updated the client side biome component minecraft:water_appearance field surface_color to be optional. Added a content error that fires if the component is empty.

Goals

• minecraft:behavior.float_wander has been updated with new fields:
  • navigate_around_surface: enables the usage of a new algorithm to find random positions to navigate to. The new algorithm aims to find random positions in the vicinity of solid (i.e. non-air and non-liquid) blocks, and if that fails will fall back to finding a random position in the vicinity of the current dimension's surface level.
  • additional_collision_buffer: makes sure there are no blocks present in an inflated area around the target position.
  • allow_navigating_through_liquids: allow the mob to have target positions inside liquids.
  • surface_xz_dist: the distance in the horizontal directions to look for nearby surfaces. Only valid when navigate_around_surface is true.
  • surface_y_dist: the distance in the vertical directions to look for nearby surfaces. Only valid when navigate_around_surface is true.
• minecraft:behavior.follow_mob has been updated with the following new fields:
  • use_home_position_restriction: If true, the mob will respect the minecraft:home component's restriction_radius field when choosing a target to follow. If false, it will choose target position without considering home restrictions.
  • preferred_actor_type: The type of actor to prefer following. If left unspecified, a random actor among those in range will be chosen.
  • filters: If non-empty, provides criteria for filtering which nearby Mobs can be followed. If empty default criteria will be used, which will exclude players, squid variants, Fish variants, tadpoles, dolphins, and mobs of the same type as the owner of the goal.
• Added fields to minecraft:behavior.tempt goal:
  • The stop_distance field specifies a custom distance for when the tempted mob should stop moving towards the player.
  • The on_start field specifies the event to trigger when the goal starts.
  • The on_end field specifies the event to trigger when the goal ends.
• Added minecraft:behavior.float_tempt goal, which allows a tempted mob to move in a line towards the player:
  • This goal is a variant of the minecraft:behavior.tempt goal and shares the same fields
  • Requires the mob to be in a floating state (e.g. use the minecraft:navigation.float component)

Graphical

• Added support for multiple locators for use with leashes for rendering multiple ropes between two entities.
• multi_lead_n:
  • Where n = {1, 2, 3, 4} defines locators when the entity is leashed to a different entity.
  • Used if and only if it has a corresponding multi_lead_hold_n and the number n is equal on the two entites.
• multi_lead_hold_n
  • Where n = {1, 2, 3, 4} defines locators where the entity is leashing a different entity.
  • Used if and only if it has a corresponding multi_lead_n and the number n is equal on the two entites.
• lead
  • is set to origin if it is not defined in the geo.
• lead_hold
  • is set to origin if it is not defined in the geo.

Items

• Bundles' open icons are now specified via IconItemComponent. This addresses the issue where a missing texture would appear for an opened custom Bundle. Bundle icon paths have also now be separated into unique keys in item_texture.json.

Molang

• query.graphics_mode_is_any no longer requires the Upcoming Creator Features experiment.
• Added the query.leashed_entity_count Molang query, which allows querying how many entities have the given entity as their leash holder.
• Added query.has_any_leashed_entity_of_type which takes a list of entity identities and checks if the actor has any of the listed entities leashed. Available on both the client and the server.
  • Usage: query.has_any_leashed_entity_of_type( 'minecraft:sheep', 'minecraft:creeper' )

Network Protocol

• Added ActorFlags::DOES_SERVER_AUTH_ONLY_DISMOUNT.

Stability and performance

• Make friends drawer and play screen more performant using a cached view.

Structures

• Exposed new fields to data driven jigsaw structures: start_height, dimensional_padding, pool_aliases, max_distance_from_center
• Made height_map_projection optional and changed anchor to start_jigsaw_name

These additions and changes are accessible by enabling the "Beta APIs", "Locator Bar", "Custom Components V2", "Drop 2 2025", "Custom biomes", "Experimental Creator Camera Features", and "Vibrant Visuals" experimental toggles.

• Will revert states back to its initial "dry" state when it is taken away from being waterlogged, using the same time scale.

/controlscheme

• Added the /controlscheme command for switching control schemes when the Experimental Creator Camera toggle is enabled.

Game rules

• Added the game rule command locatorBar to enable or disable the locator bar feature.

Player Locator Bar

• The Player Locator Bar (or Locator Bar) is a new UI element on the player HUD that displays the direction of other players in the world.
  • When the player locator bar experiment is enabled and there are multiple players in a world, the player locator bar will appear on-screen for each player, replacing the experience bar. The player level number will still be visible as before above the player locator bar.
  • The Player Locator Bar will display colored indicators when the camera is facing within 120 degrees towards another player. If another player is 30 degrees above or below the camera's viewport (the screen) an up or down arrow will be displayed.
  • Crouching will hide the player, preventing their indicator from appearing on the player locator bar of other players.
  • Players in spectator mode are visible only to players in spectator mode.
  • A mob head or a carved pumpkin will similarly hide players from the player locator bar when worn in the head slot.
• Using a potion of invisibility will also hide players from the player locator bar.

• Added AsyncPlayerJoinBeforeEvent
  • Added beforeEvents.asyncPlayerJoin, AsyncPlayerJoinBeforeEvent, and AsyncPlayerJoinBeforeEventSignal to allow creators to delay players joining the world.
  • AsyncPlayerJoinBeforeEventSignal.subscribe is different than other events because the callback it accepts returns a promise. Once the promise is resolved, the player will join the world, or if the promise is rejected the player will be disconnected without joining the server. The player will be at the loading screen while the promise is pending.

Custom Commands

• Added support for custom commands authored in script. The new CustomCommandRegistry is provided when listening to ModuleStartupEvent.
  • Additional types added:
    • CustomCommandRegistry
    • CustomCommandPermissionLevel
    • CustomCommandParamType
    • CustomCommandResult and CustomCommandStatus
    • CustomCommandParameter

Blocks

• When Custom Components V2 experiment is enabled, minecraft:custom_components component is deprecated in 1.21.80 and higher format versions.
• When Custom Components V2 experiment is enabled, custom components are flattened inline with other components and allow parameters in 1.21.80 and higher format versions. Example:

"components":{
"example_namespace:example_component":{
"someParam":3,
"anotherParam":"test"
}
}

• New field condition added to the culling rules schema. It provides more control over which neighbor blocks will trigger a face or part to be culled.
  • The supported values are default, same_culling_layer, same_block and same_block_permutation.
    • default will pass the condition if the neighbor block is full and opaque.
      • All conditions are an extension of default, meaning a full and opaque neighbor will always be a passing condition, before the extended same_* condition is checked.
    • same_culling_layer will pass the condition if the neighbor block shares the same culling_layer as the block being occluded, defined in the geometry component.
      • If either of the culling layers being compared is minecraft:culling_layer.undefined, the condition will never pass.
    • same_block will pass the condition if the neighbor block has the same identifier.
    • same_block_permutation will pass the condition if the neighbor block has the same identifier and is the exact same permutation.
  • Additionally, the feature is currently only usable behind the "upcoming creator features" toggle.
• New field culling_layer added to the block's geometry component. It allows different blocks to be grouped together when using the same_culling_layer condition in a culling rules file.
  • When using the minecraft namespace, the only allowed culling layer identifiers are: minecraft:culling_layer.undefined or minecraft:culling_layer.leaves.
  • Additionally, the feature is currently only usable behind the "upcoming creator features" toggle.

Cameras

• Changed approach for the easing between moving targets under the Experimental Creator Camera Features toggle.

Experiments

• Added Drop 2 2025 experiment.
• Added Custom Components V2 experiment.
• Added Vibrant Visuals experiment.

Gameplay

• Added minecraft:replace_biomes component to allow for custom biomes to replace portions of vanilla biomes. To use, add to custom biome files in behavior packs.

Graphical

• Added a new lighting model for clouds in the Deferred Technical Preview, now called Vibrant Visuals. The lighting parameters can not be configured at this time.
• Increased the range of cloud rendering in the Deferred Technical Preview.
• Added pixelated reflections to the Deferred Technical Preview. This new effect will cause reflections to align to the texel grid of textures in the world.
• Added pixelated shadows to the Deferred Technical Preview. This new effect can be controlled with the new shadows JSON schema, shadows/global.json. This file adds new settings that control the style of shadows in the game. Available parameters are shadow_stlye, which can be soft_shadows or blocky_shadows, and texel_size. soft_shadows are the default style, while blocky_shadows results in shadows that are pixelated in appearance. When blocky_shadows are enabled, texel_size controls the size of the pixelation effect. texel_size should be equivalent to the block texture size in order to achieve a one to one mapping between the pixels in a texture and the pixelated effect created by enabling blocky_shadows, but this is not required. An example version of what shadows/global.json could look like is as follows:

{
"format_version":"1.21.80",
"minecraft:shadow_settings":{
"shadow_style":"blocky_shadows",
"texel_size":16
}
}

Items

• When Custom Components V2 experiment is enabled, minecraft:custom_components component is deprecated in 1.21.80 and higher format versions.

Other

• Fixed a bug that occasionally caused an error when creating a Realm on an empty slot.
• Fixed a crash that could sometimes occur when certain foliage textures fail to load.
• Fixed "Download all missing packs" button not working under specific conditions.
• Fixed an issue with BlockPermutation::withState in outdated scripts that prevented some states from being set correctly on a number of blocks. Affected blocks include any which have had their directional or placement states recently changed. Scripts created after these blocks were changed may need to be updated to avoid unintended behavior.
• Fixed rotation of Jigsaw sections when Data-Driven Jigsaw Structures is enabled.
• Fixed a bug where the last byte was sometimes lost when reading encrypted files on Xbox, which caused some files to become invalid and fail to load.
• Fixed mirroring of door blocks when part of a structure that is being placed.
• Fixed ambient occlusion issue for non 1x1x1 blocks. When a block around any of these smaller non 1x1x1 blocks is broken, the AO computation is correctly applied to the face in the direction of that broken block. Previously the wrong face could be seen getting lightened/darkened. A list of blocks affected: stairs, walls, gates, buttons, cakes, plates, fences, anvil, grindstone, hopper, bell, lectern, eggs, brewing stand.
