API

• Added a new loot function CarryOverBlockEntityDataFunction with a single boolean field dynamic_properties behind beta.

• SoundInstance in beta now exposes a recipient property that returns the Player the sound was played for, or undefined for broadcast sounds.
• SoundInstance in beta now exposes a durationInfo property that returns a SoundDurationInfo when the underlying sound definition includes duration information, otherwise undefined.
• Added SoundDurationInfo in beta with a duration property, an isActive property, and a getPlaybackPosition() getter that returns the elapsed playback time in seconds.
• SoundInstance now exposes an id property that returns a unique identifier for the instance.
• WorldAfterEvents in beta now exposes a soundCompleted signal with a soundInstanceId property that matches the id of the SoundInstance that completed that fires when a tracked sound's declared duration elapses.
• Added API for minecraft:instrument_sound component.
  • It has a getInstrumentName function to get the assigned instrument given a valid facing direction.
  • It has a playInstrumentSound function to play the instrument sound assinged to a given valid facing direction.
  • The component can be obtained from any block; if a block does not have the component explicitly defined, then a component with the default sounds will be returned.

Blocks

• When applying a minecraft:sixteen_way_rotation value via console command, autocomplete suggestions will now correctly show numbers 0-15. Sixteen-way placement direction block trait now applies its rotation with the same orientation as existing Cardinal Direction and Facing Direction traits.
• Added some trait restrictions for blocks with the minecraft:multi_block trait:
  • Cannot also define the minecraft:connection trait.
  • Cannot also define the minecraft:placement_position trait.
  • If the minecraft:placement_direction is defined, only the minecraft:cardinal_direction state is allowed to be enabled.
  • The component minecraft:geometry cannot define n_way_visual_rotation for multi-blocks.
  • Cannot also define the minecraft:block_entity component.

DDUI

• Fixed the default behavior for close button bellow DDUI custom forms.
  • Default visibility value is false.

Graphical

• Updated point lights to use a shadow atlas, improving performance and update rate while making them look similar as before.

Items

• Added a new loot function carry_over_block_entity_data with a single boolean field dynamic_properties defaulted to false.

Sounds

• Added a new minecraft:server_sound_definitions payload to sounds/sound_definitions.json that lets behavior packs declare server-side sound definitions for sounds played from script.
• Warning: Currently, this causes the game to freeze and close, making it unusable.
  • Each definition can include an optional duration_info with a seconds length and a mode that controls how playback time is tracked.
  • A mode of game_time means the duration is tracked by ticks.
  • A mode of real_time means the duration is tracked by wall-clock time.

Voxel Shapes

• Added occlusion voxel shapes for one-arm, two-arm, three-arm, four-arm, and full-arm wall connections. These shapes will be applied to all Wall variations when the Voxel Shapes experiment is enabled.
  • These shapes improve face culling so that hidden faces of custom blocks are correctly removed when attached to different Wall geometries: single posts, wall runs, corners, T-junctions, intersections, and wall clusters.

  • Stair corner-state changes now trigger neighboring blocks to update for parity with Java Edition. Older worlds keep legacy behavior for compatibility.

Commands

• Using player names as a target for commands (i.e. /tell) for non-operator players is now allowed.

Dedicated Server

• Added CLI options to run the dedicated server in pack optimization mode, allowing creators to optimize packs for testing and distribution inside and outside Marketplace.

Entity components

• Made the following changes to the impact_damage on_hit subcomponent of minecraft:projectile:
  • Added a ceil_pre_critical_damage boolean field that rounds the projectile's damage up to the next integer before the critical hit multiplier is applied.
  • power_multiplier is now applied regardless of the difficulty_randomization mode, so it can be used on its own to scale damage by the projectile's velocity.
    • The resulting value is added to damage to define the projectile's base damage.
    • Its default value changed from 2 to 0 so that prior content remains unchanged when neither field is specified.
  • Replaced the semi_random_diff_damage boolean field with difficulty_randomization, which controls how the world difficulty contributes to the final damage:
    • none: difficulty is ignored (default).
    • additive: a difficulty-driven term is added to the base damage (matches the previous behavior when semi_random_diff_damage was true).
    • multiplicative: a difficulty-driven term is added to power_multiplier before it scales by the projectile's velocity.
• Added the minecraft:not_pickable_from_inside entity component.
  • When set, the entity cannot be targeted by a cursor hit-test while the picker's point of view lies inside the entity's collision box.

These additions and changes are accessible by enabling the "Beta APIs", "Upcoming Creator Features", and new "Drop 3 of 2026" experimental toggles.

Dappled forest

• An autumn-themed forest biome which can be found near cold biomes that consists of poplar trees, red shrubs, leaf litter, brown mushrooms, shelf mushrooms, and rarely spruce trees.
  • Poplar trees and fallen poplar trees generate here. Fallen poplar trees generate more frequently than other trees.
  • Shelf mushrooms can be found here, placed on poplar trees and fallen poplar trees.

API

• Added the SoundDefinition class to beta with read-only soundEventId and durationInfo properties.
• Added the SoundDefinitionDurationInfo interface to beta with a duration property.
• Added the SoundDefinitionFilter interface to beta with optional minDuration and maxDuration properties.
• Added the SoundDefinitionRegistry class to beta with a getDefinitions method that returns the loaded sound definitions, optionally narrowed by a filter.
• Added the World.soundDefinitionRegistry property to beta that provides read-only access to the sound definitions loaded for the world.
• Player.playSound now accepts a SoundDefinition in addition to a sound id string in beta.
• The minecraft:server_sound_definitions payload in sounds/sound_definitions.json now accepts an optional music_info block on each definition with optional genres (array of strings), moods (array of strings), artist (string), and title (string) fields that describe the music content of the sound.
• The minecraft:server_sound_definitions payload now accepts an optional tags map on each definition where each entry is a tag name mapped to either a single string value or an array of string values, letting behavior packs attach arbitrary metadata to a server sound definition.

• Added new optional beta properties on SoundDefinitionFilter for filtering by music metadata and tags: genres, moods, artists, titles, and tags. All comparisons are case-insensitive. An omitted field does not filter; a non-empty array matches when any provided value overlaps the definition's values.

Blocks

• Block dynamic properties are now bucketed by manifest-UUID rather than module-UUID.
• Added support for y_rotation_offset when using the minecraft:sixteen_way_rotation placement direction block trait.
• Added horizontal direction support for the minecraft:multi_block trait.
  • These new directions north, south, west, and east still require Upcoming Creator Features experiment to be enabled.
  • When placing horizontal multi-blocks, if one or more parts go into an unloaded LevelChunk, then the placement of all parts is delayed until both LevelChunks are loaded. Delayed placement actions are persistent and saved to Level storage until they are executed.
  • If placing the horizontal multi-block in a structure template, then rotating the structure, the block parts will only rotate properly if the multi-block is also defined with the minecraft:placement_direction trait enabling the minecraft:cardinal_direction state. Otherwise, the multi-block parts will not respect the structures rotation.

DDUI

• Added image method onto CustomForm in @minecraft/server-ui to allow showing images on CustomForms.
