All Xbox and PlayStation editions of Minecraft have been updated to version 1.17/TU25/CU14, bringing a range of exciting and less exciting tweaks and additions.
Some of the highlights include:
- Offended by mountains and caverns? Worry not, strange crafter, because now you have the option to customise your super flat worlds so they’re only as vertical as you desire.
- New blocks! Oak, Spruce, Birch, and Jungle wood types. Fences, Gates, and Doors! Create the log cabin of your dreams with 1.17/TU25/CU14 .
- A heap of new game options! Change the game mode, difficulty, time, player spawn position, ambient cave sounds, and weather without leaving your game session. Very handy.
- Classic crafting! Now console players get to craft items just like their PC buddies on Java Minecraft. Some players find this style of creation more satisfying. Check it out.
- New stuff! Iron Trapdoors, Inverted Daylight Sensors, Book & Quills, and Stained Glass have arrived. Use them wisely, and for good, please.
All players can also grab the free Minecon 2015 pack until July 15, which includes Alex and Steve wearing a selection of capes.
PlayStation Minecraft players are in for an extra special treat with the additional launch of the LittleBigPlanet Mash-up pack. For £3.29 you get textures, characters and creatures from Media Molecule’s platformer, along with a pre-build landscape and songs taken straight from the game.
