Minecraft Beta & Preview 1.21.100.22 – New Tricks to Spice Up Your Game!
Hey, Minecraft crew! I’m Alex, crafting in this blocky world since Beta 1.8, and I’m stoked about the latest Beta & Preview 1.21.100.22, dropped on June 25, 2025. Ever had your enchanted book turn a cozy campfire into a wildfire? That’s history now! This update’s packed with fixes and tweaks to make your adventures smoother. It’s a test build, so it might hiccup – check aka.ms/PreviewFAQ for Xbox, PlayStation, Windows, or iOS, or aka.ms/JoinMCBeta for Android. Got ideas? Shout them out at feedback.minecraft.net or report bugs at bugs.mojang.com. Let’s dig into what’s fresh, straight from Mojang’s changelog!
No More Fire Mishaps
Picture this: you’re chilling by a campfire, and your Fire Aspect book doesn’t spark a blaze anymore – thank goodness! Leads are cooler too; the “Attach” prompt’s in your language, and when they snap, the sound pops from you, not the mob. I tied up a llama caravan last night, and it felt so real. Newbies, try leashing a cow; pros, build a mob zoo with these snappy leads!
Mobs That Feel Alive
Happy Ghasts are now generous – they drop 1-3 XP orbs when you beat them, making Nether hunts tastier. Mojang’s tweaking mob deaths under the hood (no big changes yet, but watch for quirks). Arrows and tridents hit better, with their aim improving over time, not just in flight. I nailed a skeleton from 20 blocks thanks to this! What mob are you hunting first?
Sights and Sounds That Pop
Fishing lines in Vibrant Visuals mode are beefier, so they don’t vanish mid-cast – perfect for reeling in that big catch. The hurt effect on mobs is less in-your-face, and water’s caustics look sharp, no glitchy textures. Happy Ghast ride sounds are louder, like you’re cruising the Nether skies. I fished in a jungle river, and it was pure eye candy. Want to see it yourself?
For Builders and Modders
Modders, listen up! New biome tools let you shade grass or tweak humidity to control fires – I made a forest that feels alive. Blocks can shift slightly for a natural vibe, and the editor lets you drag structures right into your world. New book-editing APIs are a dream for custom maps. I’m planning a quest map with these – what’s your next build?
