This is a list of Bedrock Edition 1.21.70 development versions.

Preview 1.21.70.20

Beta 1.21.70.20 (ChromeOS, Android) or Preview 1.21.70.20 (Windows, iOS, iPadOS, Xbox, PlayStation) is the first beta/Preview version for Bedrock Edition 1.21.70, released on January 30, 2025,^[1] which adds new cow variants, leaf litters, wildflowers, bushes, firefly bushes, and fixes bugs.

Changes

Mobs

Donkey

• Donkeys now spawn in savannas.

World generation

Dark Forest

• Updated the tree composition in dark forests to match Java Edition, increasing the number of dark oak trees and reducing the prevalence of other tree types.

Short Grass

• Now generate slightly sparser in meadows.

Technical

API - Scripting

• Unhandled rejected promises in scripting now include callstacks when logged.

@minecraft/server 1.18.0

• Renamed system.scriptEvent to system.sendScriptEvent.
• Moved NamespaceNameErrorReason from beta to @minecraft/server 1.18.0.
• Moved system.sendScriptEvent from beta to @minecraft/server 1.18.0.
• Moved NamespaceNameError from beta to @minecraft/server 1.18.0.
• Released InputInfo.getButtonState, InputButton, and ButtonState to @minecraft/server 1.18.0.
• Released InputInfo.getMovementVector to @minecraft/server 1.18.0.
• Released PlayerButtonInputAfterEvent, AfterEvents.playerButtonInput and InputEventOptions to @minecraft/server 1.18.0.
• Several APIs have been given the Readonly permission, which allows them to now be called inside Before Event callbacks.
  • All methods for BlockVolume.
  • All methods for Vector.
• Changed spawnEntity method on Dimension to now take a variant of either a string or EntityType.
• Added placeFeature and placeFeatureRule APIs to the Dimension class.
• Added isValid property to the Camera class.

Blocks

• The minecraft:map_color component underwent a schema change:
• It is now a JSON object with two fields color and tint_method.
• color is a required string field expecting an HEX representation of the RGB, prefixed with a # character.
• tint_method is a string field that multiplies the color with a predefined tint. Supported values are none, default_foliage, birch_foliage, evergreen_foliage, grass and water.
• The old schema format is still supported for convenience.
• Examples:

"minecraft:map_color": {
  "color": "#ABCDEF",
  "tint_method": "grass"
}

or

"minecraft:map_color": {
  "color": "#ABCDEF"
}

or

"minecraft:map_color": "#ABCDEF"

Components

• Added the minecraft:replaceable component which determines if a new block can replace the existing block at a particular position. If the component is not added to a block it is not replaceable.

Components

• Multiple components that used effect durations can now be set to infinite including:
  • minecraft:attack: effect_duration
  • minecraft:healable: duration in the effects list
  • minecraft:mob_effect: effect_time
  • minecraft:projectile: durationeasy, durationnormal, and durationhard can now all use infinite
  • minecraft:food: duration in the effects list
  • minecraft:spell_effects: duration in the add_effects list
  • minecraft:combat_regeneration: regeneration_duration

JSON Events

• The parameter duration in the add_mob_effect event can now be set to infinite.

Sounds

• Added support for entity sound variants:
  • Entity sounds now have a variants field which defines sound variants based on the runtime entity
  • variants has a key field reading a Molang expression returning a string to select sound variant (eg: querying an enum entity property).
  • variants has a map field which contains key-value pairs of a variant identifier and the sound events it overrides.
  • When playing a sound for an entity we first try to calculate their variant and see if that variant overrides the sound event, if not we play the sound form the base entity. If that fails we fall back to the existing logic of running from defaults.
• Example:
  • Given a mob with the following property:

"minecraft:emotional_state": {
  "type": "enum",
  "values": [ "neutral", "angry", "happy", "sad" ],
  "default": "neutral",
  "client_sync": true
}

• Sound variants can be played by querying the property:

{
  "entity_sounds": {
    "entities": {
      "test_mob": {
        "volume": 1.0,
        "pitch": 1.0,
        // The base sounds for various events
        "events": {
          "ambient": "mob.test_mob.ambient",
          "death": "mob.test_mob.death",
          "step": {
            "sound": "mob.test_mob.step",
            "volume": 0.8,
            "pitch": 1.0
          },
          "attack": "mob.test_mob.attack"
        },
        "variants": {
            // Key returning the enum string for variants, can use any Molang expression resulting in a string
            "key": "query.property('minecraft:emotional_state')",
            "map": {
              // If a resulting variant key is not handled here then it will use the base sounds
              "neutral": {
                "volume": 1.0,
                "pitch": 1.0,
                "events": {
                  // If an event is not handled in a variant then it will use the base sound
                  "death": "mob.test_mob.death.netural"
                }
              },
              "angry": {
                "volume": 1.0,
                "pitch": 1.0,
                "events": {
                  // Variants can override different events than other variants
                  "death": "mob.test_mob.death.angry",
                  "ambient": "mob.test_mob.ambient.angry"
                }
              }
            }
          }
        }

1. ↑ The structure that the map leads to depends on the biome the villager is from. See the table above for more details. Each of the three possible maps are counted as independent trades, so a villager trading multiple maps is possible.
2. ↑ ^{a b} in Java Edition, all copies of the map traded by a particular villager lead to the same structure. In worlds that do not have the structure, this trade is not offered. in Bedrock Edition, Cartographers adopting the profession in the Nether or the End do not offer explorer maps.
3. ↑ The list of possible offers contains individual offers for each color, so multiple colors may be offered by the same villager as separate trades.

Experimental

These additions and changes are accessible by enabling the "Beta APIs" experimental toggle.

Changes

Technical

API

@minecraft/server 2.0.0-beta

• Raised the limit for Lore Entry length from 50 to 1000 and the number of lines from 20 to 100 when using ItemStack.setLore.
• Added three new methods to Player. These Entity Overrides are only applied to the target Player. Changes are not applied until the next tick and will not apply to other players.
  • setPropertyOverrideForEntity: Overrides an Entity Property on the target Entity to the provided value. This property must be client synced.
  • removePropertyOverrideForEntity: Removes the override of the specified Entity Property on the target Entity.
  • clearPropertyOverridesForEntity: Removes all overrides of any Entity Properties on the target Entity.

Components

• Added the minecraft:input_air_controlled component, that enables controlling flying rideables.
  • Functions similarly to minecraft:input_ground_controlled, but instead of limiting acceleration to the XZ-plane, this component applies acceleration in the direction the player is looking in three dimensions.
  • Supports adjustments to strafing and backward movement speeds, allowing entities to fly at equal speeds in all directions or move slower when strafing or reversing.
  • This component is experimental and as such requires use_beta_features to be enabled.
  • It may undergo significant changes or even be replaced as development progresses.

Graphical

• Added 4 optional components to the Client Biome JSON 1.21.70 Schema. However, these components are intended for future use with the Deferred Technical Preview and have no effect in current builds, Preview or otherwise. With this change, Deferred resource pack rules have changed slightly:
  • The game will now load all valid JSON files in the atmospherics, color_grading, lighting and water directories of a Deferred resource pack. Every valid JSON file in each category must have a unique identifier field in its schema.
  • Reserved filenames for each schema category (e.g., atmospherics/atmospherics.json or lighting/global.json) will still be treated as the global/default settings for a pack.
  • If a Biome JSON in a Deferred resource pack contains any of these new identifier components, then the identifiers will be validated against the identifiers found in the respective set of Deferred configurations. For instance, if a Biome JSON contains a minecraft:water_identifier entry, then the supplied identifier must correspond to a valid identifier in one of the pack's Water JSONs.
  • If a Biome JSON doesn't contain one of the new identifiers, then the global/default identifier from the reserved filenames will automatically be added to said biome.

"format_version": "1.21.70",
"minecraft:client_biome": {
  ...
  "components": {
    ...,
    "minecraft:atmosphere_identifier": {
      "atmosphere_identifier": "mypack:default_atmospherics"
    },
    "minecraft:color_grading_identifier": {

    },
    "minecraft:lighting_identifier": {
