Minecraft Update 1.19.8 Patch Notes

Cherry Grove

• Introducing the Cherry Grove biome, with pretty Cherry Blossom trees. You can find it in the mountains, like Meadows
• It has a new flower, Pink Petals, as ground cover, which can be crafted into Pink Dye
• Pigs, Rabbits, Sheep, and Bees spawn there
• Comes with a new wood set for the Cherry Blossom trees

Decorated Pot

• Tweaked the Decorated Pot neck based on feedback (MCPE-167168)
  • With the former pot, we decided that the pot’s neck would clip with blocks so it would be extra flexible to build with. However, we’ve had some Z-fighting issues which means that 2 objects are in the same exact position and this causes flickering. With this new block model we prevent that and the pot looks a little bit more complex!
• Decorated Pot no longer provides support for blocks wanting to attach to its side faces (MCPE-167165)
• Decorated Pot is not stackable in Inventory (MCPE-167223)

Camel

• Camels now stop dashing when entering a rideable entity (MCPE-164065)

1.5 Sneak

• The ability to sneak under 1.5 block gaps is now behind the Short Sneak toggle. Enable the toggle to continue to test out the feature while we continue polishing it

Updated “You Died” experience
