After months of waiting, Minecraft 1.18 Caves and Cliffs Part 2 update is finally approaching its expected release time. Mojang has revealed the official release date for the Minecraft 1.18 update.
The second phase of Caves and Cliffs has become the biggest update in Minecraft's history. Due to technical challenges, developers failed to release all features at once and had to split the update.
The world generation is now finally ready to be officially released. Minecraft 1.18 Caves and Cliffs update will release on November 30, 2021. Players will be able to install the latest version, Minecraft 1.18, as soon as it's released.

Major features of the Minecraft 1.18 update
At this point, almost every Minecrafter knows about the beautiful caves and mountains coming in the Minecraft 1.18 update. Because of them, Mojang's announcement regarding the split disappointed and saddened many players.
However, the much-awaited Caves and Cliffs Part 2 update is less than two weeks away. On November 30, players will be able to upgrade their world to 1.18 generation and explore new cave and mountain biomes.
The natural height of the Overworld terrain will be increased in the 1.18 update. Below the surface level, players will find massive hollow caves. Players will also come across extremely tall mountains that have a height of Y 260.
What's not coming in Minecraft 1.18 update?
At Minecraft Live 2021, developers told the community that deep dark caves and the Warden would arrive only as part of the Wild Update. In this week's announcement, Mojang officially announced a delay in a few more features. Unfortunately, goat horns, bundles, and archeology will arrive in future updates.
