It's that time of year again... You know the one, it happens every year in December and brings a tear to everybody's eye... That's right, it's the last major snapshot of the year!

Another week, another snapshot! What better way to get into a festive mood than hanging out in a fancy new village in a snowy biome?

Mojang have been doing a great job with the 'Pillage' part of the Village and Pillage update for a while now, which means it's time for the 'Village' part. So today the first village of the Village and Pillage update gets a makeover!

Todays snapshot is nice and peaceful. Mojang have gone and fixed some bugs, cleaned up so much code, nothing can go wr███████████████ ...

The nights are getting so long in Stockholm that Mojang have all long forgotten what the sun looks like. It's square, right? Anyway, at least navigating Minecraft at night should be easier now they've added lanterns!

It's been a very busy week at Mojang, but they've managed to finish off two more features in time for the snapshot.

Mojang celebrate halloween in style: with snapshots! And this weeks snapshot is another doozy! New cats! New blocks! Lots of new blocks!

The first snapshot for 1.14 "Village & Pillage" is here, and oh boy, it's a big one!

A very small (surprise) pre-release to address a few performance issues and upgrade issues left over from 1.13.1 ahead of 1.14.

Today's the day for an epic livestream celebration of Minecraft, featuring exciting new announcements, a vote for which biome is updated next, panels with the developers and much more!
