New Mob – Armadillo

There’s a brand new creature roaming around the savanna biome in Minecraft, it’s the Armadillo! This little mob is easily scared, so getting a close-up view can be challenging. They will roll around with great speed to escape your presence. Players can use a brush to collect scutes, used for a unique item exclusive to one mob. Beyond this, they don’t drop any items upon death – only experience orbs.

Unique Wolf Variants

Rather than the bland gray wolf, there are many others to find in Minecraft 1.20.5! Each variant has its own unique pattern and colors. For example, the Woods Wolf is brown with different shades. Finding these wolves is determined by the type of biome you’re exploring, as they only spawn in certain ones.

Gear Up! Use Wolf Armor

When you have many wolves to help you hunt and defend against mobs, make sure to use wolf armor in Minecraft. This is craftable by collecting and using Armadillo Scute, making it a relatively affordable item. It’s as tough as diamond armor, so your furry companions will be heavily protected! This means even explosions won’t deal too much damage.

Extra Features

There are many other new changes to Minecraft with the 1.20.5 update, primarily consisting of bug fixes and patches. However, an overhaul to the UI system is the main focus – as now it appears more streamlined. For example, the background in the main menu gets blurred when creating a world. This also happens when pausing the game in singleplayer or multiplayer mode. It’s a quality-of-life change for Minecraft!

What’s Next for Minecraft?

The future of Minecraft is never-ending, especially with the upcoming release of 1.21. We have previews for this that reveal a lot of game-changing features. These include a new dungeon found underground called trial chambers, full of limited mob spawners and a new way to collect loot. There’s even a brand-new weapon! The mace can be used to deal heavy damage depending on how many blocks you fall. Using experimental settings on your Minecraft server or singleplayer world is how you can begin testing out these exciting features!
