Minecraft Snapshot 20w27a

A Minecraft Java Snapshot

It's time for another snapshot cycle as we make our way towards 1.16.2! This snapshot introduces the Piglin Brutes, and you might have heard about them in a Bedrock beta already. 

The Piglin Brutes will be the only feature addition of 1.16.2, the rest of these snapshots will be focused on fixing bugs.

New Features in 20w27a

  • Added Piglin Brutes!

Piglin Brute

  • Piglin Brutes are stronger versions of Piglins that live in bastions and protect the treasures there
  • Unlike their cowardly and greedy counterparts, the Piglin Brutes cannot be distracted by gold and aren’t afraid of anything
  • Piglin Brutes attack players on sight, no matter how the player is dressed
  • Piglin Brutes wield axes and don’t need any armor, because they’re just that tough

Changes in 20w27a

  • Zoglins can now be leashed
  • Crimson and warped fungus can now be placed on mycelium

Technical Changes in 20w27a

  • Small improvements to data and resource pack selection screens
