Minecraft PE 1.16.220.52

Last week we finally had the chance to try a new full game version which was Minecraft PE 1.16.210. That update comprised all the changes and fixes from the previously released betas. Today we will take a step forward because the Mojang team has many surprises ready for us. Get ready to discover several new features and other cool changes brought by Minecraft PE 1.16.220.52!
Please note that you won’t be able to play with non-beta players and in Realms, while trying this version, like you could using the previous one because betas do not allow this. We also recommend you back up your existing game worlds because otherwise, you risk losing them.

We will start with the greatest news and this time this is the introduction of a lot of interesting new blocks. They are meant to be present in Lush caves but unfortunately, these caves are not yet present the game. The blocks are as follows:

• Spore blossom blocks
  
• Moss blocks. Fertilize them and you will see that different plants grow on them. Can be dug using hoes.
  
• Moss carpet is a new kind of vegetation and can also be dug in the same ways as the previously-mentioned blocks
  
• Azalea blocks. They can serve as fuel
  
• Azalea leaves
  
• Flowering Azalea blocks and leaves
  
• Cave vines that can sometimes have glow berries. These berries can be used to place these vines underneath other different blocks. When someone interacts with these berries, they usually pop. Sometimes these vines do not have berries, but you can solve this by fertilizing them. You will also discover that they emit light, but only those that have berries. Just like the rest of the existing vines, the new ones are climbable. The berries that grow on them can be used to satisfy your player’s hunger. They are also suitable for breeding foxes.
  
• Moss
  
• Rooted dirt
  
• Hanging roots
  
• Small dripleaf blocks that can turn into big ones when bone mealed
  
• Spore blossoms
  

Besides the development of all these amazing blocks, the developers improved the world generation. You will see noticeable changes when installing this update.

Traditionally, the MCPE developers could not ignore the issues and performed a number of important fixes. These are:

• Corrected textures of copper ores

• Introduced the possibility to obtain copper block slabs and stairs with the stonecutter. This possibility is also available for cut copper
  
• Introduced the possibility to gradually cancel the waxed state of copper. This should be done by clicking on it with an axe
  
• Developed particles emitting from copper when it gets waxed or de-waxed. You will also notice such particles when these blocks get hit by lightning
  
• Reduced the oxidation period of copper if a lightning rod gets hit nearby
  
• Removed the bug turning leaves opaque each time someone puts a lightning rod on top of them
  
• Removed the bug allowing such rods to get connected to walls
