The pillagers were previously mentioned by Jeb in response to a suggestion posted on Reddit.[ 1]
The Village & Pillage trailer has a few game mechanics that were not introduced in 1.14. At 34 seconds into the video, the player throws a sword, and at 44 seconds, a cleric throws a blue version of redstone . The blue redstone was later confirmed to have been a rendering error.[ 2]
The official artwork for the Village & Pillage update shows a witch holding a potion with one hand, despite the fact that witch's arms are always folded like those of a villager.
On the China Edition , the title screen is the Village & Pillage artwork, but with an extra vex and Steve flying with elytra.
