We’re nearing the end of November! I can already hear Mariah Carey - All I want for Christmas Is You!

Minecraft 1.18 - Part 2 of the Caves and Cliffs update will drop on November 30th. This is the update that really everyone was expecting much earlier this year rather than the half baked release we got. Either way, new updates as always present a raft of different challenges and uncertainties. Staff have been getting a lot of questions ingame about the update but at this point in time, there are really no answers.

We have no ETA for when we will update to 1.18. It is not currently possible to update and as always, it will take a while after release to get everything ready for the new version. It can also take quite a large amount of time for the server jars to be created. Nobody wants a laggy update, so rushing head first into the early releases is not a good idea. It is also left to be seen exactly what performance impacts will occur with the extra 64 blocks of height limit that are being introduced. This, along with more substantial terrain generations have also impacted the ability of players on lower-performance PCs being able to play. That is not something that we can fix and it would be up to Mojang to improve the game's performance which they can most likely only do after the update is live and rolled out to millions of users.

Either way, it looks set to be an entertaining December which heaps of fantastic activities planned!
