Todays snapshot marks The Village & Pillage update as mostly feature complete. Mojang are still planning to do a big polish pass, there may be some small features snuck in here or there, but ultimately it's bug fixing from here on out and Mojang are hoping for a release quite soon!  

Mojang have got a fever and the only prescription is more cowbell.

Mojang are slowly entering the "bug fixing and polishing" phase of the 1.14 Village & Pillage update, but that didn't stop them from sneaking in a few cool features like Leather Horse Armor (it's dyeable!), making Invisiblity Potions actually useful in survival, and best of all...

What's orange and white and sleeps all day? Jens, but Mojang still managed to finish another Java Snapshot this week.

This week's snapshot is a small one, but it brings a fancy new splash screen! Start up the snapshot and you'll find out right away.

Who adds Stonecutter functionality to Minecraft? Mojang do! Mojang do! Who fixes Java bugs day-in day-out? Mojang do! Mojang do!

Can you think of anything in this world that's as exciting as the existence of compost? No. You can't. Which is why Mojang have included it in this week's snapshot.

Finally, it's time for the first snapshot of the year! Mojang have managed to cram smokingly hot Campfires, Cartography Table functionality and Lectern functionality into this snapshot.

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?
