Exploring all rumors and speculations for Minecraft 1.21

What are your theories for the next Minecraft update? by u/Fantasyneli in Minecraft

Minecraft 1.21 is speculated to be a big update since its development started soon after the release of 1.20. It might arrive this winter, with 2024 also being a rumored release window. The reason why it takes a lot of time to develop a feature is that there are two editions (Java and Bedrock).

All those new updates must fit into the game, and a lot of bug fixes and performance testing for different platforms need to be carried out.

Minecraft fans believe the next update will specifically cover in-game lore, explaining the spontaneity of recent announcements. Some easily explainable mobs are the zombie villagers, who once used to be normal.

Some of these mobs have self-explanatory stories, such as the Allays and the Vexes. Meanwhile, a few offerings have been left as a complete mystery, such as the Mineshafts and their unknown residents. The most mysterious of all is the giant unusable portal in the Ancient cities and the Redstone mechanism underneath it. All these and more may be revealed in the game's upcoming version.
