Snapshot 23W16A introduces new mechanics, revamped structures, and vibration fixes for contraptions far away. Check out our highlights of this content-filled snapshot<\/a> below!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to the sculk changes in previous snapshots,<\/a> vibrations now stay queued until all adjacent chunks have been loaded. This seemingly small change ensures proper function even when far away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sniffers<\/h5>\n\n\n
\n
\"Minecraft<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Sniffers<\/a> also received a highly welcome change! Like chickens, pigs, and other passive mobs, sniffers now follow players when they are holding their favorite food. In this case, it is torchflower seeds!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trail Ruins<\/h5>\n\n\n
\n

Finally, the biggest winner of 23W16A was trail ruins!<\/a> They have been completely reworked, multiple variations have been added, and the sand within them has been replaced by gravel and dirt. Due to the number of changes put in place, it is recommended to see them firsthand in-game!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Install Minecraft 1.20 Snapshot 23W16A<\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Installing snapshot 23W16A<\/a> on Java Edition begins right inside the Minecraft client. First, open the Minecraft Launcher and enable snapshots in the \u2018Installations\u2019 tab. Second, click \u201cNew Installation,\u201d select \u201cLatest Snapshot\u201d in the drop-down menu, and then click create. The new snapshot installation will now be a selectable option before clicking play!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, significant content updates such as snapshot 23W16A require a few extra steps. Once loaded into the game, click \u201cCreate New World,\u201d select \u201cDatapacks,\u201d<\/a> and enable \u201cbundle\u201d and \u201cupdate_1_20\u201d before clicking \u201cCreate New World\u201d again. With the new world created, select it, and click play!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please note snapshots and pre-releases can corrupt worlds! Ensure backups<\/a> have been taken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
