'''1.16.4''' is a minor update to {{JE}} released on November 2, 2020,<ref>{{Mcnet|minecraft-java-edition-1-16-4|Minecraft Java Edition 1.16.4|November 3, 2020}}</ref> which adds the [[Minecraft:social interactions]] screen and fixes various bugs. The content of 1.16.4 is identical to [[Minecraft:Java Edition 1.16.4 Release Candidate 1|its release candidate]].<ref>{{tweet|adrian_ivl|1321835428929015808|Hello! Things happened and we made the decision to hold the release of 1.16.4 until Monday. Still, there won't be any changes from 1.16.4-rc1 to the actual release.|October 29, 2020}}</ref> While 1.16.4 was not the last minor version of 1.16, it was the last one before snapshots for [[Minecraft:Java Edition 1.17|1.17]] began. This is the final version released in 2020.

== Additions ==
=== General ===
'''[[Minecraft:Chat]]'''
* Added an option to hide matched names.
** Some servers send chat messages in non-standard formats. With this option on, the game attempts to apply chat hiding anyway by matching the text in messages.

'''[[Minecraft:Social interactions]]'''
* Gives [[Minecraft:player]]s the ability to disable chatting with certain players, thus hiding any messages received from them.
* Opens with a configurable key binding, by default {{keys|P}}.
* Whether a player is hidden resets when re-joining a server.
* The status of a player is listed below their name.

== Changes ==
=== Items ===
'''[[Minecraft:Netherite leggings]]'''
* Changed the texture of the worn netherite leggings model.

=== General ===
'''Accounts'''
* When logging in with a Microsoft account, players blocked in that account are now also blocked in the game, and account restrictions are now respected.

'''Accessibility'''
* A button to open a link to the accessibility guide can now be found in the "Accessibility Options" screen.

'''[[Minecraft:Crash]]es'''
* More information is now added to the crash log in cases where poor performance causes the server to crash.

'''[[Minecraft:Options]]'''
* Added "joinedFirstServer" option to {{mono|[[Minecraft:options.txt (Java Edition)|options.txt]]}}.

'''[[Minecraft:Protocol version]]s'''
* New network protocol scheme, with a high bit (bit 30) set for snapshots. The protocol version will increase by 1 for each snapshot, but full releases may keep the same protocol version as the previous full release in cases where the network protocols are compatible.

'''[[Minecraft:Multiplayer]]'''
* When the server and client version are incompatible, a message reading "Incompatible version!" in red will be displayed, instead of "Client out of date!" or "Server out of date!" in dark red.
* When multiplayer is disabled, the message displayed now reads, "Multiplayer is disabled. Please check your Microsoft account settings." instead of "Multiplayer is disabled. Please check your launcher settings."

'''[[Minecraft:Splash]]es'''
* The splashes relating to the Black Lives Matter movement have been added to {{mono|splashes.txt}}. These splashes were added to the game via a launcher update during [[Minecraft:Java Edition 1.16.2|1.16.2]] but were not in {{mono|splashes.txt}}. The splashes are:
** Black lives matter!
** Be anti-racist!
** Learn about allyship!
** Speak OUT against injustice and UP for equality!
** Amplify and listen to [[Minecraft:wikipedia:BIPOC|BIPOC]] voices!
** Educate your friends on anti-racism!
** Support the BIPOC community and creators!
** Stand up for equality in your community!

== Trivia ==
* This was the last full version to be released in [[Minecraft:Timeline of events|2020]].
* Originally, this version was going to be released on October 29, 2020, but it got postponed by 4 days.
* With the introduction of social interactions, this is the oldest Java Edition release so far that does not show players a warning pop-up telling it's an older version that doesn't support the latest safety features when they launch it in the [[Minecraft:Minecraft Launcher|official launcher]].

== Note ==
* Minecraft 1.16.4 and Minecraft 1.16.5 are network compatible, that is, 1.16.4 servers can have players from 1.16.5.
