1.17, the first release of Caves & Cliffs, is a major update to Java Edition announced at Minecraft Live 2020 and released on June 8, 2021. This update adds amethyst geodes along with amethyst blocks and items, copper ore and its derived forms, deepslate and its variants, and the goat, glow squid and axolotl mobs.

On April 14, 2021, Mojang Studios announced that the update would be split into two updates due to the amount and complexity of content, as well as team health. Multiple features such as revamped mountain and cave generation, the lush caves and dripstone caves biomes, and increased world height were removed on 21w15a to be later released for 1.18. These features could be re-enabled with a preview data pack and subsequent snapshots updated this data pack with new experimental features. The latest data pack for the full 1.17 release, named the Caves & Cliffs: Part II Preview, can be downloaded here.

  • It is available in survival through the wandering trader.

Dripstone Block

• A decoration block.
• Appears to be made of the same materials as stalactites and stalagmites but as a full cube.
• Generates mainly in the dripstone caves biome, which is currently available only through single biome, caves, or floating islands world types.

• Can be waterlogged.
• Unlike vines, it does not pop off when underwater, and is not climbable.
• Up to 6 can be put on the same block space, merging into one block.

Hanging Roots

• Decorative blocks that can be placed only on the underside of a block.
• Obtained with shears, otherwise breaks.
• It can be obtained using a hoe on rooted dirt turning it into normal dirt.

Infested Deepslate

• An infested variant of deepslate.
• Spawn a silverfish when mined.

Light

• A new waterloggable source of light, originally from Bedrock Edition.
• Only available with commands such as /give.

  • Unlike barriers, light blocks can only be targeted when holding the item.
• The light level it is emitting can be changed by interacting with it.

Lightning Rod

• Can be crafted with 3 copper ingots.
• Lightning strikes within a 32-block radius get redirected to the lightning rod.
  • Turns completely white when struck by lightning.
• Gives off a redstone signal with a strength of 15 if hit by lightning.
• Can be activated directly by throwing a trident with Channeling at it during a thunderstorm, though this does not produce a redstone signal.

Moss Block

• An opaque block with a grass-like texture on all sides.
• Can be fertilized with bone meal to grow grass, tall grass, moss carpets, and both types of azaleas on it and in its vicinity.
• Can be fertilized with bone meal to grow over (expand) across stone surfaces, but not grass surfaces.
• Breaks when pushed by a piston or sticky piston.
• Can be combined with cobblestone or stone bricks to make the mossy versions of those blocks.
  • Vines can still be used, in addition to moss blocks.
• Both axes and hoes are an appropriate tool to collect it.
• It can be used to plant small dripleaf

Moss Carpet

• Same texture as the moss block, but one pixel thick.
• Can be crafted with moss blocks, or be obtained by applying bone meal to them.

Pointed Dripstone

• Can be either placed on a ceiling to create a stalactite or on top of a block to create a stalagmite.
  • Can be combined to form longer stalactites and stalagmites.
• Thrown tridents break pointed dripstone. They also break when pushed directly or with a block by a piston.
• Stalagmites break if not attached to something below.
• Stalagmites hurt entities that fall on top of them more than normal fall damage.
  • Damage is relative to height: For example, jumping on a stalagmite deals 2HP of damage, and falling from 3 blocks deals 8HP of damage.
• Stalactites can fall or break if unsupported, and break apart on impact, hurting entities they fall on.
  • Damage is relative to height: For example, one falling from 2 blocks deals 2HP of damage, and one falling from 3 blocks deal 4HP of damage.
  • They drip water or lava into cauldrons if a source block is placed above the stalactite, and gradually fill the cauldron. Water drips even without any water above the block (as does lava in the Nether) but this effect alone does not fill the cauldron.

Powder Snow

• A variant of snow, entities that walk over it sink into it.
• Leather boots can be worn to prevent entities from sinking into powder snow blocks.
  • Players can still crouch to descend with leather boots. Wearing leather boots also allows powder snow to be "climbed", like water or scaffolding. They also prevent fall damage when landing on powder snow.
  • Leather Horse Armor also protects horses from freeze damage.
• When inside a powder snow block, a frosty vignette appears around the player's screen and any entity (with the exception of strays, polar bears, and snow golems) inside starts freezing and taking damage after a short time.
  • Wearing any piece of leather armor stops the freeze effect.
• Can be collected and placed with a bucket.
• Entities on fire melt powder snow when colliding.

Rooted Dirt

• A dirt-like decorative block with roots on its texture.
• Similar to coarse dirt, neither mycelium nor grass spread to it.

• Currently, it does not generate naturally, available only from commands such as /give, but natural generation is planned for future versions.
• Senses vibrations such as block placement, footsteps, and projectiles, and emits a redstone signal.
• Emits particles when it senses a vibration nearby.
• A comparator connected to it emits different signal strengths based on what caused the signal.
• Does not detect ambient weather such as rain.
• Wool blocks between the sensor and the cause of the sound prevent the sensor from detecting the sound.

Smooth Basalt

• A basalt variant that composes the outer layer of amethyst geodes.
• Can be obtained by smelting basalt.

Spore Blossom

• Used to store other items (except shulker boxes) inside of it.
• Can hold only one stack of items, but is able to hold different types of items inside of it.
  • Items with smaller stacks, such as ender pearls, take up more room in a bundle, and non-stackable items take up the whole bundle.
• The bundle's contents can be opened by pressing use while holding it, throwing out its entire content into the world. When destroyed as an entity, it drops the items it currently has as well.
  • Right-clicking a bundle in the inventory empties one item from the bundle.
• The player receives a tutorial when first having a bundle in the inventory.
• Even though bundles are not stackable, bundles can be nested.
  • Can hold up to 16 bundles.
  • Only empty bundles can be placed in other bundles without using commands.
• Has a GUI when hovering over it.
  • Shows contained items in its GUI's inventory slots when hovering over it, as well as fullness as a number.

  • They have a two-minute cooldown after hunting non-hostile targets such as fish and squids.
  • They prioritise attacking hostile mobs over passive ones.
• If a player kills a mob an axolotl is in combat with, the player gets a Regeneration I effect and is rid of Mining Fatigue, if they had it.

Goat

World generation

Amethyst Geodes

• A new feature found uncommonly underground (can rarely appear exposed to the surface close to sea level).
• Contains blocks of amethyst and budding amethyst blocks, which are encased in a shell of calcite and smooth basalt.
  • Also generates with a small air pocket nearby that may open into the geode.
• Generates between Y=70 and y=0.
• Overrides standard caves and ravines, but is overridden by abandoned mineshafts.
• Currently has a high generation rate, presumably for testing purposes as with ruined portals in the 1.16 snapshots.

Azalea Tree

• Consist of azalea leaves (both variants), oak logs and rooted dirt.

Biomes

Dripstone Caves

A dripstone caves biome.

• Currently available only in buffet or custom worlds, as cave biomes were delayed to 1.18.
• Contains pointed dripstone (both stalactites and stalagmites) and dripstone blocks.
• Dripstone clusters are abundant here, often forming pillars.

Lush Caves

A lush caves biome.

• Currently available only in buffet or custom worlds, as cave biomes were delayed to 1.18.
• Contain moss, moss carpet, spore blossom, glow berry vines, big dripleaf and small dripleaf.
• Moss covers the ceilings and floors.

Command format

/item

• Modifies the inventory of a block or entity.
  • This command has three forms:

    • /item <target> modify <modifier> – modifies item (without copying).
    • /item <target> copy <source> [<modifier>] – copies item for source to target(s), optionally applying modifier
  • Possible sources and targets: entity <selector> <slot> or block <x> <y> <z> <slot>
  • For example, /item block ~ ~ ~ container.0 copy entity @s enderchest.0 copies the first item from player's enderchest to the first slot of the container player is currently standing on.
  • Replaced /replaceitem.

Item modifiers

• Reuse functions syntax of a loot table to describe item modification in /item command.
• The function part of loot tables can now be defined as separate data pack resource in item_modifiers directory.
  • Such files can contain a single function (i.e single JSON object) or an array of functions.

Gamerules

• freezeDamage
  • Whether entities take damage from freezing inside of powder snow.
• playersSleepingPercentage
  • Controls what percentage of players must sleep to skip the night.
  • When set to 0 or a negative value, a single player is sufficient to skip the night. The sleeping animation occurs as normal.
