Minecraft 1.20 Update Presents New Features, Cool!

father has added many new features to the upcoming Minecraft 1.20 update in its latest snapshot, 23w12a. Some of these features provide a new nuance in playing games.

Although the developer stated that it will not be adding any major features after the Cherry Grove biome, several new blocks and items have arrived to further enhance the new elements. 

Some of these are related to pre-existing Minecraft update features that were included with previous updates.

The Minecraft 1.20 update is one of the biggest snapshots for Java Edition. Since Mojang has taken a different approach to reveal all the features in installments, the player base is consistently surprised almost every month.

New Features in Minecraft 1.20 Update

Right after releasing the new Bedrock beta, Mojang published the first Minecraft 1.20 snapshot for Java Edition players. 

This trailer is packed with great content, including a huge amount of pottery shards, the much-anticipated Sniffer's egg, new structures, and compatibility features for sculk sensors and amethyst blocks.

Here are some of the features and changes added with the latest snapshot in 1.20 that you should know about.

Calibrated Sculk Sensor

The calibrated sculk sensor is a new variant of the regular sculk sensor. It can only be obtained by crafting the regular version with three amethyst shards. 

You can basically change the activation level of this block based on the frequency of the sound. When a redstone enabled block is placed nearby and sends a redstone signal, only certain signal levels will be detected by the new block.

Trail Ruins

Previously, Mojang announced that the archaeological feature would add suspicious new sand blocks near temples and desert wells. 

In the latest snapshot, the developer has added a small structure called the Ruins Trail which also contains the suspiciously common sand and suspicious new gravel blocks.

These structures can be generated in several temperate, cold, and snow-covered biomes. It would appear in all shapes and sizes, varying from a destroyed village to a destroyed hut.

Pitcher Plant

After Sniffer was released in snapshots and experiment data packs, Mojang added torch flower seeds and torch flower. With the latest snapshot, the developer has included a new factory called Pitcher which sniffer can also find in pod form. 

After the pitcher plant is sown, the plants will have five different growth stages. Finally, plants can be harvested to get plants in the Minecraft 1.20 update.

When Mojang first introduced the archeology feature a few weeks ago, four new pottery shards were added that can be found within suspicious new sand blocks. 

With the latest snapshot, the developer has taken pottery shards to a whole different level by adding 16 new ones. 

All of these can be found in various excavation sites such as Desert Wells, Desert Temples, Cold Ocean Ruins, Warm Ocean Ruins, and Trail Ruins, in suspicious blocks of sand and gravel.

Sniffer's Egg

Sniffer eggs have finally been added to the Minecraft 1.20 update. Ha this is a new ancient mob that will be added with the next update. 

However, you have to find the eggs to get them out. These eggs can be found by brushing against suspicious sand in warm ocean debris or by breeding two adult sniffers. 

These eggs usually take about 10 minutes to hatch if placed on a block of moss. Otherwise, they take about 20 minutes to hatch.

Sniffled no longer appears after breeding two Sniffers. Instead, the Sniffer's egg was dropped. Players can hatch this egg by placing it on a block and waiting for about 20 minutes. 

However, placing it on moss takes half the time to hatch. Occasionally, the Sniffer may sniff out and dig up pitcher pod items, which the player can plant and harvest on farm land blocks.
