Mojang recently released the Minecraft Java snapshot 25w31a, bringing loads of new features that will eventually be released with the fall game drop. Apart from new copper features and changes to the F3 debug screen, Mojang has also brought two new accessibility features that can be used in a unique way to gain an advantage in the game.

Here is everything to know about the two new accessibility features coming to Minecraft Java Edition.

In the latest snapshot 25w31a, Mojang added two new accessibility features called Attack/Destroy and Use Item/Place Block settings. These two settings were under the new controls button in the main accessibility section in the settings.

Both of these settings are related to how players use their mouse to perform certain actions. By left-clicking, players attack hostile creatures or mine blocks, and by right-clicking, they use items and place blocks.

As of now, both these activities are only possible when players hold the mouse button down constantly. With these new accessibility features, players can change these settings from "Hold" to "Toggle".

This means that if a player left-clicks the mouse button once, their character will continue to attack or destroy blocks that are in their crosshairs. This action will not stop until and unless they click the left mouse button once again, after which the game will register the click and stop the action. The same goes for the right-click, where the player will continue to place blocks until the mouse button is clicked again.

Through these accessibility features, players essentially get an auto-clicker feature built into the game. When both settings are set to toggle, players can quickly break or place blocks without even touching their peripherals. This can also help them in various AFK farms, where they have to kill or break blocks.
