- Minecraft Earth (@minecraftearth), April 28 2021. The most important new feature seasons, challenges and seasons will provide players with plenty to do. Every season brings new challenges. If that's not enough players can also take advantage of daily challenges, and the option to use tappables to unlock new challenges. Character creator items and other rewards can be gained through completing challenges that help players work through the season.

If you like tracking your achievements, the most recent update includes a player journal and collections. The player journal records all your accomplishments, including items as well as blocks. Completers can fill in their collections and tick them off their list.

The update also adds 10 new mob variants for chickens and rabbits. This adds to the previously mentioned collections and, again, gives players more to explore and look for. Microsoft has also added more in-depth profile stats, remembers more settings across sessions, and provides new adventures. The changelog is available and the latest updates are expected to be available for playing right now.
