Java Edition

Combat changes

The combat system is planned to be reworked in a future update, keeping the cooldown but only allowing the player to attack when fully charged. It is not known yet when those changes will be made, as they are developed in parallel to other features and will make it into the game "when they're good enough". The update in which they are included will also not be a combat-themed update. The latest combat test, Combat Test 8c, was released in August 2020.

Winter drop

After 1.21.2, the next game drop will be the Winter Drop, with no set release date, which will add Creaking and Pale Garden. All of the Winter drop features are currently behind the Experiments toggle in 1.21.2.

Bedrock Edition

1.21.50

1.21.50, the Winter Drop, is an upcoming update to Bedrock Edition with no set release date, which will add Creaking and Pale Garden.
