minecraft_xbox_one_update

Playstation and Xbox Editions get humongous update. Posted on Dec 18, 2015 by Owen Hill. We’ve just updated Minecraft for Xbox 360, Xbox One, Playstation 3, and Playstation 4 with a staggering amount of features. Yes, we’re constantly improving Minecraft on all platforms but this is actually our biggest update ever, bringing the console versions closer to the current PC build than they’ve ever been before. To prove this, I present the following changelog which will require significant amounts of vertical scrolling. From henceforth, this update will be known as “Update 1.8.8.” Two quick notes about 1.8.8 on other consoles before we get into it: the update is slightly delayed for Minecraft on Playstation Vita so expect it to arrive in the next few days. And, though we’re working hard to bring these features to Nintendo’s console, 1.8.8 won’t be available on Wii U until some time next year. OK. Enough chatter. Here’s a trailer and the full changelog! Armour Stand, Raw Rabbit, Cooked Rabbit, Rabbit Stew, Raw Mutton, Cooked Mutton, Rabbit’s Foot, Rabbit Hide, Potion of Leaping, Potion of Water Breathing, Salmon, Cooked Salmon, Clownfish, Pufferfish, Blue Orchid, Allium, Azure Bluet, Tulips, Oxeye Daisy, Sunflower, Lilac, Poppy (replaces Rose), Rose Bush, Peony, Double Tall Grass, Large Ferns, Prismarine Crystals, and Prismarine Shard have all been added! New items for Creative Mode. Rabbit Spawn Egg, Endermite Spawn Egg, and Guardian Spawn Egg can now be used in Creative Mode. Podzol, Granite, Polished Granite, Andesite, Polished Andesite, Diorite, Polished Diorite, Prismarine, Dark Prismarine, Prismarine Bricks, Red Sand, Red Sandstone, Smooth Red Sandstone, Chiseled Red Sandstone, Red Sandstone Stairs, Sea Lanterns, Wet Sponge, Slime Blocks, Coarse Dirt, Packed Ice, Acacia Saplings, and Dark Oak Saplings are now available in-game. Endermite, Guardian, Elder Guardian, Rabbit, and Chicken Jockey now roam the lands! Mesa, Mega Taiga, Roofed Forest, Birch Forest, Forest, Savanna, Extreme Hills+, Deep Ocean, and Snowless Taiga are all available for exploration. More features that I’ll list using bullet points to save bandwidth. Treasure can now be caught while fishing. There are a lot of cool things to find! Enchanting now consumes Lapis Lazuli, and enchanting books can receive multiple enchants at once. Villagers now have additional professions, and will harvest crops and breed. To encourage that kind of behaviour, give them 3 bread, 12 carrots, or 1 potato. They’ll also turn into Witches when struck by lightning. Now any rectangular shape from 4x5 to 23x23 will work as a Nether Portal. Ghasts can travel through them too. You can use Pumpkins or Wither Skeleton Skulls to spawn Golems and Withers. We’ve rebalanced the Anvils. Moss Stone, Mossy Stone Bricks and Chiseled Stone Bricks are now obtainable via crafting. You can now use a furnace to create Cracked Stone Bricks and Sponge. Empty Furnaces will now only accept fuel and empty Buckets in the fuel slot. Item Frames now emit a Redstone signal, and can rotate in 8 directions. Redstone comparators can now detect the rotation of an item in an item frame and output an equivalent power signal. Buttons can now be placed on the top and bottom of blocks. Powered Activator rails now dismount entities riding Minecarts. Water-filled Cauldrons will put out burning entities, taking away one water level each time. When harvested with Silk Touch enchantment, Huge Mushroom Blocks drop blocks with corresponding Mushroom texture (red or brown) on all sides. We’ve reintroduced Sponge to Survival Mode with new behaviour and texture. Sugar Cane colour is now affected by biome. Baby Zombies now drop XP Orbs. Creepers can now be ignited with Flint and Steel. Adult Zombie Pigmen will now forgive after a short time. Witches now drink a Potion of Water Breathing when they are trapped underwater and can drop a Potion of Water Breathing upon death. Melons can now be found in patches similar to Pumpkins in the Jungle Biome. Swamp Biomes now feature Blue Orchid Flowers. Plains Biomes now generate Azure Bluets, Oxeye Daises, Tulips, and Double Tall Grass. Extreme Hills Biomes now feature Snow at higher elevations. Ocean Biomes now only feature Gravel on the floor instead of Sand, Dirt and Gravel. Desert Temples spawn with Stained Clay instead of Dyed Wool. Ocean Monuments now feature. New enchantments - Luck of the Sea (I-III), Lure (I-III), Depth Strider (I-III) -have been added. More fixes and tweaks which subtly make the game more enjoyable. Sheep now drop Mutton when they die. Arrows decelerate more quickly underwater and extinguish if on fire. Most mobs can now swim. Skeletons flee from wolves. Creepers, Skeletons, Wither Skeletons and Zombies drop their heads when killed by Charged Creepers. Spiders no longer see players through solid blocks. Baby mobs growth can be accelerated by feeding them. Fix for players adding additional layers above the maximum height in Superflat. Added Flint and Steel and Fire Charge sound effect when igniting blocks. Updated audio for Cows and Mooshrooms. Updated audio for Minecarts. Created a new Tutorial World. Phew! I am exhausted.

Minecraft's Big Better Together Cross-Play Update Out Now For Xbox One, PC, And Mobile. The update is also coming to Switch sometime this winter. Last updated by Kevin Knezevic on September 22, 2017 at 6:57AM. You are now subscribed. The next major update for Minecraft is out now for Xbox One, PC, VR, and mobile. Dubbed the Better Together update, it adds a number of new features to the popular sandbox title, most notably cross-play support between the different platforms. With the new update, players on Xbox One, PC, and mobile devices are now able to play together online regardless of what platform they're on. The update will also be released for the Nintendo Switch version to allow cross-play with Nintendo's console, though developer Mojang says that won't be ready until sometime this winter. While Minecraft will eventually support cross-play between most of the platforms it is available on, it doesn't appear PS4 players will be able to join in on the fun. Sony has been reluctant to allow cross-play between PS4 and other consoles, though Mojang says it is still in discussions with the company about bringing the feature to the PS4 version. In addition to cross-play, the Better Together update gives all players access to a ton of player-made items on the Marketplace and adds stained glass, fireworks, banners, parrots, and many other new features to the game. The update also allows players to continue their progress in their Realm on a different platform, and they can now share invite links to Realms with other players. Finally, the Better Together update addresses a long list of bugs--so many that Mojang couldn't list them all in its patch notes. The developer did, however, specify that llamas will now no longer creepily stare at you while you ride them. You can read more about the Better Together update on the Minecraft website. Minecraft Better Together Patch Notes. New Features. Stained Glass Fireworks (with Elytra boost!) Parrots Banners Armor Stands Jukebox and music discs Recipe Book Book & Quill Ravines Coarse Dirt New world start options: Starting Map; Bonus Chest; Trust Players New game rules: Show Coordinates; TNT Explodes; Natural Regeneration Added "/tickingarea" command to create areas that still update when no players are there Player permissions Zombie Villager spawn egg In-game host options Paper doll viewer Outline selection toggle In-game player names toggle HUD opacity toggle Expanded Xbox Live multiplayer world settings New loading screens with funny and helpful tips How to Play screen Remix 3D export functionality (Windows 10 only) New achievements Server Partners Realms invite links Mash-up Packs and Texture Packs will now decorate the main menu and in-game HUD. Rebalanced most of the game sound effects and music, such as rain being much quieter It is now much easier to see underwater after drinking a Potion of Water Breathing and Potion of Night Vision Blaze Powder is now needed to fuel brewing stands Ice blocks are now transparent Maps can now be held off-hand and show the heads of players' skins Locator maps now track the owner's position, regardless of dimension Worlds can now be set to Invite Only, Friends Only, or Friends of Friends Various improvements and changes to navigating the user interface Redesigned button mapping and added Pick Block for controllers Render Clouds and Fancy Leaves can now be toggled in Video Settings Skins can now be changed from the pause menu Chat messages can now be muted Items picked up are now animated on the hotbar Stained glass and banners will now spawn on End Cities Increased the default player limit on worlds from 5 to 8 on higher-end devices Block placement speed now matches the player's movement speed Temperature decreases with height and it can now snow at high elevations Observer blocks have updated textures and will now blink red when outputting a redstone pulse Adjusted the color that flashes when mobs are attacked Brick Blocks, Nether Brick Blocks, and Clay Blocks have been renamed to better differentiate from other items Underwater particles Jungle leaves are now transparent on higher-end devices when Fancy Leaves are enabled Changed the sound effects for Creeper explosions Added sound effects for placing Eyes of Ender into portal frames and opening The End portal. "Too many to mention. My favourites are: making cats purr again, preventing bats from swimming underwater and stopping llamas from creepily turning their heads to stare at you while riding them."

Cross-platform Marketplace functionality, however, is already live. To enroll in the beta on Xbox One or Windows 10, you'll need a digital copy of the game. You also have to download the Xbox Insider Hub app, and then join the Minecraft Beta through the Insider Content section. On Android, follow the instructions here to access the beta.

Take Flight in the Next Update for Minecraft: Console Editions. Today we’re excited to give a sneak peek into some of the long-awaited features we’ll be bringing to Minecraft: Console Editions in December. Since adding banners, beets and polar bears with our last update in October, the team has been hard at work on our biggest Minecraft console update of the year – the Holiday Update! You’ll be getting new mobs, items, blocks and status effects, in addition to UI, game and tutorial updates. Now, with any sneak peek, we aren’t revealing everything right now, but here are some of things we’re most excited to deliver to players: If you’re sick of spending all your time walking on solid ground, just equip the new Elytra, which enables players to glide through the air! You’ll find your Elytra in The End, which has been updated to include End Cities, End Ships and all the Chorus Plants, Flowers and Purpur you can handle. Don’t say we didn’t warn you if one turns out to be a Shulker. Like potions? Use Dragon’s Breath to create Lingering Potions if you want to leave some status effects on the ground for a friend or foe to happen upon. Speaking of status effects, we’re adding a couple new ones as well – Levitation and Luck. If you’re just getting started on a new world on Xbox One or PlayStation 4, you can turn on Amplified Terrain. This option makes the differences between mountains and valleys more extreme – so put that Elytra to good use! More details will be shared on the Holiday Update when it launches for free in late December across all Minecraft console platforms. In the meantime, I’ll be brushing up on my winter survival skills by tossing some snowballs in Tumble. How to get a new Xbox 360 update. See these updating tips and steps.
