The first snapshot with features for the "Winter Drop" announced at #Minecraft Live is out!

๐ŸŒณ The pale garden is an eerie place with lots of trees and foliage that seem to have lost all color.

๐Ÿ‘๏ธ Some of these trees have a secret: They can summon a living tree that can get quite dangerous! But only if you're not looking at it.

I'm still kinda confused what the purpose of this new content is. Maybe its just me, but it feels like nothing here is particularly notable mechanically, or visually. The biome itself is ugly and contrasts heavily with most structures you'd want to build in a forest. The new blocks provide little new in terms of colour or texture given that they're just greyscale wood when we already have a relatively large palette of grayscale blocks. Even the new mob, while somewhat unique, doesn't feel like it'd be useful for anything but the most niche redstone builds, and aside from that, will be forgotten. Are they planning on adding a bunch more? It didn't sound like it, but maybe I'm missing something?

all the pale garden needs is a reason to go there other than to grab the plants and run. bonus points if you have to do it at night and actually need to interact with the creaking

Looks promising. I'm curious if this yearly 2 updates model will produce more new features

I imagine it'll be the same as 1 update a year we just will get some in one update and the rest in the other

Hmm could be the case

Why can't they just add a fall foliage biome already.
