Buzzy Bees! What a delightful bit of alliteration. Someone should use that for when they add bees to their game. Unfortunately, we already promised marketing we'd call this Minecraft Java Edition presents: Disgusting Bugs.

What's that? I'm hearing marketing have had a change of heart, and that we can confirm in this pre-release that we'll be calling the actual release, on December 10, Buzzy Bees. Hooray!
