Bedrock Edition 1.21.111/Development versions

This is a list of Bedrock Edition 1.21.111 development versions.

Preview 1.21.110.20

Beta 1.21.110.20 (ChromeOS, Android) or Preview 1.21.110.20 (Windows, iOS, iPadOS, Xbox, PlayStation) is the first beta/Preview version for Bedrock Edition 1.21.111[note 1], released on July 22, 2025,[1][2] which adds shelves and copper golem statues, changes dye textures, and fixes bugs.

Additions

Blocks

Copper Golem Statue

  • Copper golem statue is a new type of decorative block which has waxed and oxidized variants.
  • Copper golem statue oxidizes over time and can be waxed like copper blocks.
  • The pose of the block can be changed by interacting with it.
  • If the copper golem statue has no oxidation when interacted with using an axe, the block will turn into a copper golem again.
  • When connected to a redstone comparator, the copper golem statue block emits a redstone signal based on its current pose.

Shelf

  • The shelf is a new type of decorative block which comes in all wood variants.
  • The shelf can be crafted from six matching blocks of any stripped log, stripped stem, or block of stripped bamboo, filling the top and bottom row.
    • This recipe produces 6 shelves.
Ingredients Crafting recipe
Matching Stripped Log or 
Block of Stripped Bamboo or 
Matching Stripped Stem
  • The shelf can store up to 3 item stacks:
    • Interacting with any of the 3 slots on its front swaps the player's main hand item with the content of that slot.
    • The shelf displays all items it contains in front of it, similar to an item frame.
  • While a shelf is powered by redstone, its front texture changes to reflect that it's powered; when placed next to each other, up to 3 powered shelves will connect.
    • Interacting with a single powered shelf swaps all its contents with the 3 rightmost items in the player's hotbar.
    • Interacting with two connected shelves swaps their contents with the 6 rightmost items in the player's hotbar.
    • Interacting with three connected shelves swaps their contents with all items in the player's hotbar.
    • It does not matter which of the connected shelves the player interacts with.

Changes

Blocks

Fire

  • Some blocks that could catch fire with flint and steel, like the top stone slab or wood stair, will now also catch fire during fire explosion, such as those from fireballs.
  • Glass blocks will now catch fire with flint and steel or fire explosion.

Items

Copper armor and tools

  • Hostile monsters now have a chance to spawn with copper armor equipped.
  • Hostile monsters can pick up and use copper weapons and armor.

Dyes

  • Dye colors now have updated icons.
  • The goal with these is to enhance visual cohesion across the dye set while maintaining distinct shapes to support colorblind accessibility.

Mobs

Wolf

  • Wolves no longer start shaking off water if they are already shaking off water.

Copper Golem

  • If the copper golem has fully oxidized it will turn into a copper golem statue block.
  • When turned into a copper golem statue block, it will freeze in a random pose.
  • When turned into a copper golem statue the copper golem will drop any item it may be holding.
  • A copper golem turned into a copper golem statue will keep its name if named with a name tag.

General

Experiments

  • Removed the "Drop 3 2025" experimental toggle.

Graphical

  • Update volumetric fog configs for PC to have more consistent steps in performance impact, while also maximizing image quality for cost.
  • Added support for subsurface scattering on particle textures.
  • Updated max render distance to 28 on PC for Vibrant Visuals.
  • Increased thickness on block selection wireframe to make it more visible in Vibrant Visuals especially with TAAU enabled.

Realms

The new "Edit World" screen in Minecraft Realms.
  • New Edit World page available to try:
    • To access, click "Settings" on the Realms tab to go to the Slots page. Then, select a world and click "Edit World." There will be a button at the top of the page that you can click to try the new design.
    • You can flip back and forth between the old and new designs as much as you want.
    • Resource and behavior packs will still have to be configured in the old design for now.

Technical

Add-Ons and Script Engine

  • Moved the properties ash, red_spores, blue_spores, and white_ash from the minecraft:climate biome component to the new client biome component minecraft:precipitation.

API

@minecraft/server
  • Added @minecraft/server version 2.3.0-beta.
  • Added @minecraft/server version 2.2.0.
  • Enabled Player.applyImpulse and Player.clearVelocity.
  • class AimAssistRegistry
    • Added readonly property DefaultCategoryId.
  • Updated System.sendScriptEvent to be able to be called in "before" events.

Biomes

  • Added content errors in server side biome components that were missing them to more easily identify issues and how to fix them.

Blocks

  • Custom block geometry no longer produces a warning when fully contained within the first or last 1/16ths of the unit cube volume in any axis.
    • A warning is still produced if the geometry doesn't have at least one corner overlapping the unit cube volume, not counting its boundary.

Components

  • Content warnings will log missing references in Jigsaw Structure, Processor List, Template Pool, and Structure Sets JSON.
  • Content warnings will log missing references in Camera Preset, Camera List, Aim Assist Preset, and Aim Assist Categories JSON.
  • Content warnings will log missing item references in Crafting Items Catalog JSON.
  • Changes to minecraft:input_air_controlled.
    • Renamed to minecraft:free_camera_controlled.
    • Removed upward movement behaviour when holding the jump action from this component.
  • Added new component minecraft:vertical_movement_action.
    • Adds the functionality of upward or downward movement when holding the jump action.
    • This component is automatically added to any entity that uses the old minecraft:input_air_controlled with format version 1.21.100 or older.
  • Updates to minecraft:dash.
    • Renamed to minecraft:dash_action to improve clarity.

Entity Components

  • Added slot.weapon.mainhand and slot.weapon.offhand as valid slots for minecraft:interact component operations.

Entity Event Responses

  • Added the drop_item entity event response, which allows an entity to drop its item in a given slot.

Graphical

  • Changed defaults for color grading contrast and saturation fields to 1. Previously the defaults were 1.2 and 1.05 respectively.

Items

  • Setting the minecraft:use_modifiers component's movement_modifier field to 1.0 now allows using the item while sprinting, and starting to sprint while using the item.
  • poly_mesh is no longer treated or documented as an experimental feature.
  • texture_meshes is no longer treated or documented as an experimental feature.
  • The scale field can now adjust the depth of texture_meshes, since its value is no longer ignored.
  • Added the use_pixel_depth option to texture_meshes to control how geometry depth relates to texture resolution.
    • If set to true, the geometry will have a depth of one pixel (in entity space, not texture space).
      • This causes textures with a resolution different from 16×16 to appear stretched.
    • If set to false, the geometry will be built from perfectly cubic voxels, regardless of the texture's aspect ratio.
    • Defaults to true to ensure backward compatibility.

Experimental

These additions and changes are accessible by enabling the "Beta APIs", and "Custom Biomes" experimental toggles.

  • MCPE-225241 – Copper Golem Statue Block Cannot Be Waterlogged.
  • MCPE-225259 – One copper golem became 2 statues.
  • MCPE-225471 – Wolf Armor not appearing on wolves.

Other

  • Fixed the pose of the statue not always updating in multiplayer and split screen.

  • Fixed not being able to leash copper golems to other entities.
  • Fixed position when sitting in boats.

  • Fixed a bug where the minecraft:shareables component would mix attributes of duplicated entries in its items list. E.g. the priority would be taken from the first duplicated element and the max_amount from the last, now the first matching entry will fully shadow those coming after it. Consider this items list in a minecraft:shareables using the new tag functionality:
    "items": [  
      { "item": "minecraft:apple", "priority": 1, "max_amount": 2 },
      { "item": "minecraft:is_food", "priority": 0, "max_amount": 1 }]
    
    Previously minecraft:apple would have had priority 1 but max_amount 1 instead of 2, now it will correctly use all data from that first item apple entry.

Additions

Technical

API

  • Added new method isChunkLoaded to Dimension which returns true if a chunk at an area is loaded and ticking.
  • Added enum HeldItemOption to beta for PlayerSwingEventOptions. This specifies options related to the item currently being held at the time of a player swing:
export enum HeldItemOption {  
    AnyItem = 'AnyItem',       
    NoItem = 'NoItem'  
}
  • Added interface PlayerSwingEventOptions to beta. Event options/filters for PlayerSwingStartAfterEvent. - Field heldItemOption?: HeldItemOption
    • Added class PlayerSwingStartAfterEvent to beta. This contains information regarding a player starting to swing their arm:
      • Field heldItemStack?: ItemStack.
      • Field player: Player.
    • Added class PlayerSwingStartAfter.EventSignal to beta. This event is fired at the start of a player's swing (e.g. attacking, using an item, interacting). It can be subscribed/unsubscribed via world.afterEvents.playerSwingStart and optionally filtered by passing in PlayerSwingEventOptions.

Blocks

  • Added component minecraft:redstone_producer behind the Upcoming Creator Features toggle.

Components

  • Added new block component minecraft:flower_pottable:
    • It is an empty component defined as such: minecraft:flower_pottable: {}.
    • When the component is present on the block, > a player can interact with an empty flowerpot when holding the block in order to embed it.
    • Similar to other Vanilla pottable blocks, a player can remove the potted block by interacting with the pot with an empty hand.
    • The component requires the Upcoming Creator Features toggle.
    • Pottable not potable.
  • Added new block component minecraft:embedded_visual:
    • The component has two required fields, geometry and material_instances, similarly to minecraft:item_visual.
    • When the component is present on the block, it defines which geometry and material_instances to use when the block is embedded into another block, eg. into a flowerpot.
      • If the component is not present, embedded blocks fallback to their innate geometry and material_instances.
      • The component cannot be defined in the permutations section; only one embedded visual can be achieved per block type.
    • The component requires the Upcoming Creator Features toggle.
  • Added new field embedded to the item_display_transforms object:
    • The field defines the overall transformation this geometry should be subject to when embedded into a block, eg. a flowerpot.
    • If the field is not defined, the default transformation is a 0.75x scale, similar to the one applied to most Vanilla flowers.

Changes

Technical

API

  • Expanded LootTableManager beta functionality, which now allows for loot table discovery via the new getLootTable method.

Components

  • Modified minecraft:material_instances to support weighted variations textures with these requirements:
    • format_version must be greater than or equal to 1.21.110.
    • World must have "Upcoming Creator Features" experiment enabled.
