The latest snapshot for Minecraft Java Edition, 25w34b, is here with exciting tweaks and features. From Copper Golem enhancements to new server policies, there’s plenty for players to explore in this update.
Fresh Features in Snapshot 25w34b
Fans of Minecraft will love the new main menu panorama showcasing Copper Golems in a bustling Village. But the real game-changer is the server Code of Conduct feature, where players must agree to rules before joining certain servers. It’s a step toward safer, more respectful multiplayer spaces.
Copper Golem Revamps
Copper Golems are getting some polish in this update. Their hitbox has been adjusted for better door navigation, and their height tweak prevents pesky snags. Plus, sip a Potion of Invisibility, and watch their eyes vanish—spooky! Sound effects for Golems and Copper Chests now carry up to 12 blocks, though sorting noises are toned down for less annoyance.
What’s New with Accessibility?
An accessibility setting formerly known as End Light Flashes is now ‘Hide Sky Flashes,’ with expanded functionality to mute End Flashes. It’s a small but meaningful tweak for a smoother experience.
Technical Tidbits for Tinkerers
For the tech-savvy, Data Pack version 84.0 and Resource Pack version 66.0 bring backend updates, alongside a new ‘fetchprofile’ command for asynchronous player profile downloads. Numerous bugs, including Realms connectivity issues, have also been squashed. For full details, check the official Minecraft website.
