Today is a sad day for Obsidian... It's crying. If you're not into crying you could always take aim at the new Target that we've added.

This update can also be found on minecraft.net.

If you find any bugs, please report them on the official Minecraft Issue Tracker.

New Features in 20w09a

Added the Target Block!
Added new Crying Obsidian block! It's sad and it cries purple energy

Target Block

Because let's face it, your aim could use some practice

The closer you hit to the center, the larger the redstone signal!
Test your skills with a variety of projectiles, including eggs, snowballs, tridents, and more!
You will need one hay block and four redstone for this recipe

Zombified Piglin

Zombie Pigmen are now known as Zombified Piglins, and they now have ears... or well, one at least

Changes in 20w09a

Bartering loot has been restructured to be more appealing to Survival players
Crying Obsidian can now be obtained from Piglin Bartering
Entities now get pushed by flowing lava
Huge Fungi will now grow only on its matching type of Nylium
Can now place Warped/Crimson roots and fungi into pots
Nether wart blocks and warped wart block can be cleared quickly using a hoe
Weeping vines are now climbable!
Biome fog color smoothly blends between biomes. Smooth
Changed ambient block lighting in the Nether to be on parity with other editions

Block Renames

Some blocks have been renamed. Turns out singular Fungus in the Nether attempted to falsely present itself as many Fungi - very sneaky!

Crimson Fungi is now called Crimson Fungus
Warped Fungi is now called Warped Fungus

Technical Changes in 20w09a

New particle types: dripping_obsidian_tear, falling_obsidian_tear, landing_obsidian_tear
Piglins now have an IsImmuneToZombification data value that prevents them from zombifying in the overworld
"minecraft:climbable" is now a block tag that allows datapacks to determine which blocks are... well - climbable
