Minecraft - 1.21 Update Preview

Minecraft unveils curtain for 1.21 update

"Minecraft" has just added its most exciting new features of the 1.21 update ahead of schedule. Mojang has given us the ultimate Christmas gift by releasing the armadillo and wolf armor of the 1.21 update in a preview or snapshot version.

New animals and armor await us

With the upcoming 1.21 update and its adorable armadillos, highly anticipated wolf armor, and other exciting new features, "Minecraft" has truly captivated me. While the crafting additions are a big deal, I'm more of a casual player and always look forward to seeing new animals in the blocky sandbox game.

Preview version gives first insights into the update

The latest "Minecraft" preview shows how we can test some of the best features of 1.21 before the big update is released. The sandbox game now gives us access to the armadillo living in the savannah and what we've been waiting for for years: wolf armor to keep all the good boys safe while we explore.

Preview perfect for the holiday season

The latest preview comes just in time for the holiday season. As the developer says in their announcement, "That means you can spend your break interacting with this new shy mob and going out with your favorite pet in wolf armor."

Savanna grasslands: Home of the armadillo

While playing the early version, we will likely come across the armadillo hiding in the savanna grasslands. As the new creature is easily startled, we will see how it "rolls up into a very adorable blocky ball" and "does not unroll until the threat is over."

Protection for our furry friends

With the scales, you can craft the long-awaited wolf armor to keep the dogs safe during adventures. I never usually bring my wolves along due to the fear of losing them. That's why I'm looking forward to finally experiencing the company of a furry companion in the wilderness.

Important notes about the preview

It is important to note that these cute features come as part of the new preview or snapshot and may not necessarily be representative of the 1.21 update.
