Minecraft is blazing ahead with some brand new content with the freshly announced Nether update – bringing new biomes, mobs, structures, blocks, and visual effects to the game’s underworld.
During this weekend’s Minecon, the developer showed off some of the new features we can expect from The Nether update – including the two new biomes Soul Sand Valley and Nether Wart Forest, as well as the new inhabitants we’ll find within them.
What seems to be close relatives of the Zombie Pigmen, Piglin Beasts are creatures that can be found living in the Nether Wart Forest – they are aggressive, but also a source of food if you manage to take them down.
