Minecon 2019: Everything They Showed Us!
The annual Minecon 2019 event has come to an end, and the developers made several important announcements. Below we've written about all the main events of the day!
The presentation began with Lydia Winters coming on stage and inviting Cory Scheviak and Agnes Larsson, who work on Java Edition.

Cory Scheviak and Agnes Larsson talked about the first new features of the next game update: bees, honey, and new blocks (honey block and honeycomb block).

The Honey Block is similar to the Slime Block, but its special feature is that it "sticks" other mobs to itself, allowing you to create new mechanisms or descend safely.

Officially — Minecraft Earth will be released in October this year.
In Minecraft Bedrock, the character creator has already appeared, but very soon it will appear in the new augmented reality game — Minecraft Earth!

In Minecraft Bedrock and Earth, new features will appear — capes and emotes!

With emotes, players will be able to communicate with other players using new animations, which will likely be sold for real money.


But it's worth noting that you can already get a free cape for Bedrock! Just search the in-game marketplace for founders cape and get two free Steve and Alex skins equipped with golden capes!
Be sure to grab the pack for yourself, because in future updates the developers will add the ability to activate the cape for your own skin!

By unlocking achievements, players will receive items for their character! Now achievements won't be useless!

A story trailer for the new game Minecraft Dungeons was shown. The game will be released next year for Windows, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch.
With new power, he subjugated all the villagers, began to plunder and destroy everything in his path. Who will have the courage to stand against the reign of the Arch-Illager? Well, maybe… you?
Announcement of a major new game update called Nether Update!

Below you can watch the announcement trailer for the update. Very soon we will publish a new article on our site detailing all the new features of the update!
At the end of the event, Vu Bui came on stage, handed an envelope to Jens, and the lead developer of Java Edition announced the winner of the vote for an update to one of the three biomes in the game — MOUNTAINS!

Those were all the main events shown at Minecon 2019! What did you like the most?
