April Fool's Day Update 2016



2nd April 2016



This year's April Fool's Day update brought us a lot of cool technology to the world of Minecraft, which to many, did seem quite basic: starting from scratch, building your own house, no technology to waste your time on.

Firstly, the new sign design. Instead of the rustic, old wooden look, we now have a black background with green writing. We also now have a smarter watch (it tells the time whilst tracking your footsteps, distance flown, distance run and so on), an ankle monitor (to stop you from violating your house arrest), a VR headset, and a USB charger blog to power all your new devices.

I hope you enjoyed today's slightly different post. If you want to view this for yourself, go to the 'Edit Profile' button on your launcher, tick the box for allowing snapshots, and then click on the most recent pre-release. When you open up your game you should have it.
