Additions

Items

Template:Animate Minecraft:Nautilus armor

Template:Animate Minecraft:Spawn eggs

  • Added nautilus and zombie nautilus spawn eggs.

Template:Animate Minecraft:Spear

  • New weapon that can be crafted in wood, stone, copper, iron, gold, diamond and netherite versions.
    • Each material has different stats for timing, influencing how fast they are to use.
    • Copper, iron and golden spears can be smelted into the respective Minecraft:nuggets.
    • Wooden spears can be used as a fuel in a Minecraft:furnace.
  • Cannot be used to mine blocks, as opposed to other weapons.
  • Can be enchanted with the exclusive enchantment Minecraft:Lunge, in addition to the available enchantments for Minecraft:swords (except Minecraft:Sweeping Edge).
  • Has a minimum reach for damage, being too close to a target will yield no damage.
    • Has extended maximum reach compared to other tools and weapons.
  • Minecraft:Zombies, Minecraft:husks, Minecraft:zombified piglins and Minecraft:piglins can spawn holding a spear.
  • Has two attacks: jab and charge.
    • Jab
      • Used by quick-pressing the Template:Control.
      • Is a low-damage attack with knockback.
      • Has a cooldown between attacks.
      • Wooden spears have the fastest cooldown, while netherite has the slowest.
      • Can hit multiple enemies.
    • Charge
      • Used by holding the Template:Control.
      • Damage is based on spear material, the player’s view angle, and the velocity of both the player and the target.
      • While holding down the button, the attack goes through three stages before returning to idle:
        • Engaged: The spear can deal damage, knockback, and dismount mounted enemies if the speed is above the required thresholds.
        • Tired: Indicated by the spear rotating to a vertical position and shaking. The Spear can deal damage and knockback (but not dismount) if the speed is above the required thresholds.
        • Disengaged: Indicated by the spear being lowered, pointing downwards. The Spear gives damage but not knockback or dismount if the speed is above the required threshold.
      • The spear's range when used by mobs is half of that when used by players, but they can deal damage, dismount and knockback at lower speeds than the players.

Mobs

File:Nautilus.png Minecraft:Nautilus

File:Zombie Nautilus.png Minecraft:Zombie nautilus

  • A new underwater mob that spawns with a Drowned rider wielding a Minecraft:trident.
  • Hostile only if ridden by a hostile mob.
  • Behaves similar to the nautilus except that it cannot be bred.
  • Burns in sunlight, like other Minecraft:undead mobs.
    • Nautilus armor protects it from sunlight damage.
  • Drops 0-3 Minecraft:rotten flesh when killed, on a player kill, unaffected by Minecraft:Looting.

Command format

Template:Cmd

  • New command that allows the creation of a stopwatch that keeps track of real time.
  • Stopwatches do not depend on game ticks.
  • They only run when the server/world is running, even when paused.
  • Syntax:

Gameplay

Minecraft:Death messages

  • Added the following death messages:
    • "<player> was speared by <player/mob>"
    • "<player> was speared by <player/mob> using <item>"

Minecraft:Effects

Minecraft:Enchantments

  • Minecraft:Lunge
    • A new enchantment that is unique to the Minecraft:spear.
    • It is incompatible with Minecraft:Mending.
    • Only works with the jab attack.
    • When doing a jab attack with Lunge, it propels the player horizontally in the view direction.
    • The view angle needs to be perfectly leveled horizontally to achieve maximum lunge distance.
    • Does significant durability damage to the spear.

    • Format: string, damage type identifier.
      • e.g. damage_type='minecraft:spear'

Gameplay

Minecraft:Advancements

Minecraft:Clouds

  • Cloud movement and position is now tied to the world time, hence the same for all players on a server.

General

Minecraft:Controls

  • Several uses of the Template:Key key on Mac have been rebound to Template:Key:
    • The input modifier to drop all items.
    • The input modifier to include all the data when picking a block.
    • The input modifier to change GUI scale in the Video Settings screen.
    • Stopping the recipe book from cycling through variations of items.

Minecraft:Damage types

    • Template:Cd: Effects applying after a piercing attack with an item.
  • Enchantment Entity Effects
    • Template:Cd: applies an impulse to the targeted entity.
      • Template:Cd - The first step of determining the impulse is applying this vector as local coordinates (the same used by Template:Cmd) onto the entity look vector.
      • Template:Cd - The second step is scaling the resulting vector by this vector on each axis in world space, X, Y and Z.
      • Template:Cd - The third step is scaling the resulting vector by this Level-Based Value.
    • Template:Cd: can now support a list of sound event identifiers, one for each level of enchantment. If a level is higher than the number of sounds, the last sound in the list is used.

Minecraft:Entity data

Minecraft:Fonts

  • Template:Cd font has been updated to use Unifont 17.0.01.

Item components

  • Template:Cd
    • Items with this component now show information about it in their tooltip.

Minecraft:Item models

    • Template:Cd
      • Defaults to Template:Cd
      • Indicates how fast the item moves up and down when swapping items in hotbar.

    • Rate limited to 1 notification per 30 seconds.

Minecraft:Predicates

  • Component Predicates
    • Component predicates (predicates field in block, item and entity predicates) now include predicates for checking existence of every component type.
    • Those predicates are written as {<component_type>: {}}.
    • Such predicate check passes as long as component is present, no matter the actual value.
    • Existing predicates for specific components remain unchanged.
    • Example:
      • {predicates:{written_book_content:{author:"foo"}} - existing format for matching books.
      • {predicates:{written_book_content:{}} - special case of above that accepted any value, as long as component existed.
      • {predicates:{instrument:{}} - checks if component minecraft:instrument exists (was not allowed before).
  • Item Predicates
    • Item predicate in command form (<item>[predicate~{...},component={...}]) has been extended to accept empty predicates for any component type.
    • Similarly to component predicates in data, those empty entries only check for component existence.
    • Existing shorter syntax for checking component existence remains unchanged.

Minecraft:Resource pack

  • The version is now Template:Cd.
    • This is due to Unifont being updated.

Minecraft:Server

  • Added ClientFps JFR event.
  • Experience packets that do not change the player's experience progress or level are no longer sent by the server.
  • Client FPS is expected to be higher for most players.

      • "Glint Speed"
      • "Glint Strength"
      • "FOV Effects"
      • "Distortion Effects"
    • Tweaks that were previously hidden behind the "Graphics" setting have been split out to be configurable independently:
      • "See-Through Leaves"
      • "Show Vignette"
      • "Weather Effect Radius"
        • Configures the distance in blocks within which rain and snow are visible.
      • "Improved Transparency"
        • Resolves some of the transparent geometry rendering issues at a significant GPU cost, previously was hidden behind "Fabulous!".
    • A new "Preset" slider was added to the top of the "Quality & Performance" section.

      • Available presets are "Fast", "Fancy", "Fabulous!" and "Custom"
      • The default preset is "Fancy" for new players.
      • But for players who are upgrading to this version the preset will be set to "Custom" to preserve the current configuration.

Minecraft:Sounds

  • Minecraft:Anvil destroy, land, place and use sounds now play at a slightly lower volume.

Minecraft:Tags

Minecraft:Texture atlases

  • Minecraft:celestials.png-atlas
    • A new celestials atlas has been introduced, including sprites for objects rendered in the sky such as the Sun and Moon.
    • Includes sprites from <namespace>:textures/environment/celestial/<path>.png
    • The following textures have been moved or split:
      • textures/environment/sun.png -> sun
      • textures/environment/end_flash.png -> end_flash
      • textures/environment/moon_phases -> moon/full_moon, moon/waning_gibbous, moon/third_quarter, moon/waning_crescent, moon/new_moon, moon/waxing_crescent, moon/first_quarter, moon/waxing_gibbous

Minecraft:Textures

  • All blocks in the world now have mipmaps applied if enabled in video settings.
    • Blocks that did not have mipmaps before, such as different vines, rails, foliage (apart from leaves) and more should look better from higher distances.
  • Template:Cd section of Template:Cd files has a new boolean field Template:Cd
    • The default value is Template:Cd
    • It is set to Template:Cd for the block textures that had mipmaps before this version:
    • If the field is set to Template:Cd and the texture is cutout the mipmaps will be darkened to emulate the darker interior of the block, this was the behavior for cutout mipmapped blocks before this version.
    • Leaving the field unset or setting it to Template:Cd will generate mipmaps without darkening, and it fits well for other types of cutout blocks that do not have dark interior such as flowers, grasses, vines, rails, etc.
  • Only mipmaps of level 0 and 1 are now animated for block animated textures.
  • Minecraft:Glass and Minecraft:glass panes now support translucent textures.

Minecraft:UI

  • Menu sliders will now "stick" to the closest available value when releasing them after dragging with a mouse.
  • When using keyboard to change slider values, arrow keys will now move the slider to the next available value, not by one pixel as before.

  • Added new nine-sliced sprites:
    • container/inventory/effect_background

  • Removed the following sprites:
    • container/inventory/effect_background_large
    • container/inventory/effect_background_small

Trivia

  • This version has the same protocol version number as 1.21.9 Release Candidate 1. The two versions are not actually compatible; 25w41a crashes when attempting to join a 1.21.9-rc1 world, and 1.21.9-rc1 throws a "Network Protocol Error" message when attempting to join a 25w41a world.
  • Unlike most first-of-the-week snapshots, 25w41a was released on a Thursday instead of a Tuesday, similar to the snapshots before 14w26a.
