Minecraft 1.19 'The Wild Update' Released! New Biomes, New Items, New Mobs!

The awaited 1.19 update to Minecraft is now live, announced at Minecraft Live 2021, this update brings some exciting new content to the most popular video game of all time.

For this update, you might want to check the changelog, which you can view here. In this update, there are two exciting new biomes to explore, the Deep Dark and Mangrove Swamp! I wonder what's lurking in there? Let's take a look at the official trailer for 'The Wild Update' here:

Brand new items have been added to the game! Not to mention new monsters and amazingly...FROGS! At the moment, frogs can't be kept as pets, unfortunately, but I wonder if frogs may be tameable in the future? Time will tell. With Ancient Cities being introduced, there is a lot to explore and I'm sure servers using Tebex are already eagerly awaiting when they can update their servers to this fun new update.

The best practice is to wait several days for the plugins you rely upon to be updated before you go ahead and update your whole server. You don't want your players to be struggling with the broken quality of life plugins or bugs. We're not aware of any issues with our Tebex plugin for Minecraft, but if you encounter any, please get in touch so we can fix this for you!

A second cute and fun trailer for the 1.19 update is below:

For Minecraft servers on Tebex, you may already have plans in place for this update, and if you're new to running a Minecraft server, now is a great time to get started. A new update will mean an increased player count for servers and potentially more support for your project, so this is a perfect time to venture into Minecraft.

For a rundown of the contents of the new features in this update, you can check out this fun video by wattles:

For this new update, you might want to launch a sale or coupon to celebrate, and that's a great idea, especially to boost your player base morale for the new update and reward them for supporting your project. Let's not forget our fantastic creator codes feature, so if you're partnered with a content creator, you can reward them for sending customers to you.

With this update, there are lots of possibilities for events for your server and player engagement. Mazes built with the new blocks; a gift card reward at the centre for the winner perhaps? Or spawning The Warden (buffed?) as a challenge for the best fighters on your server? I'm sure there are plenty of cool events, and for the builders out there the brand new items and blocks will be fantastic for their base building and projects. If you need some help with thinking of ingame events, we've done a little research for you and this post might help you get started!

Minecraft is still going very strong, and Tebex is pleased to provide a platform for so many servers who create amazing universes and memories for their players. We can't wait to see what exciting new builds and events come from this awesome new update!
