The next major Minecraft update will add the Trial Chamber and an automatic crafting item called The Crafter.
Mojang has announced a new update coming to Minecraft in 2024 that will add a host of new features, including a new structure and automatic crafting with Redstone. The new update, announced as part of the Minecraft Live 2023 broadcast will focus on combat, adventures, and tinkering, and is said to celebrate the 15-year anniversary of the game’s release.
As part of the next update, Minecraft will see a new structure called the Trial Chamber added to the game. You’ll be able to test your combat skills in this new structure. Additionally, a new block called the Crafter is being added. This item will make automatic crafting via Redstone available in vanilla Minecraft for the first time.
Minecraft adds new structure called the Trial Chamber
Perhaps the biggest new feature is a multiple room structure called the Trial Chamber. Apart from some unique visual features, the Trial Chamber is procedurally generated, and no two will be the same. It’ll challenge you with mob spawners, puzzles, and traps.
Each Trial Chamber will include dozens of new blocks including Copper grates, new decorative Tuff blocks, and lots of new uses for copper overall, including Copper Lights.
Trial Chambers will include Trial Spawners, which will spawn more difficult mobs such as Strays and Slimes. Unlike regular spawners, these won’t need to be destroyed to stop spawning monsters. Instead they’ll go on cooldown when the trial is completed, and then will start again later. Defeating a Trial Spawner’s challenge will drop loot like Emeralds. And the difficulty of a Trial Spawner will scale depending on the number of players online in a server, if you’re playing online.
