New screenshots show off today’s Minecraft update

As you're probably aware today, the console versions of Minecraft are getting a pretty hefty update today. With it comes  new blocks, new game options, classic crafting, and just… tons more. Below are the full patch notes and below that are the screenshots showing off the new features.

  • Offended by mountains and caverns? Worry not, strange crafter, because now you have the option to customise your super flat worlds so they’re only as vertical as you desire.
  • New blocks! Oak, Spruce, Birch, and Jungle wood types. Fences, Gates, and Doors! Create the log cabin of your dreams with 1.17/TU25/CU14 .
  • A heap of new game options! Change the game mode, difficulty, time, player spawn position, ambient cave sounds, and weather without leaving your game session. Very handy.
  • Classic crafting! Now console players get to craft items just like their PC buddies on Java Minecraft. Some players find this style of creation more satisfying. Check it out.
  • New stuff! Iron Trapdoors, Inverted Daylight Sensors, Book & Quills, and Stained Glass have arrived. Use them wisely, and for good, please.

You'll also notice a screenshot of the brand new Minecon 2015 Skin Pack, which will be available for 15 days after its July 1st launch.
