The Minecraft 1.17 Caves & Cliffs update has been the most highly anticipated update of 2021.
With the update divided into two halves, the first is set to come out today, June 8th, 2021. It boasts the addition of all the neutral and passive mobs to the game, including axolotls, goats, and glow squids. As well as the debut of many new ores, blocks, in-game items, and more.
Players who were anticipating the debut of the most feared cave-dweller in Minecraft, The Warden, might be a little disappointed. He'll be released alongside the second half of the update during the holiday season in 2021.
With this highly anticipated release comes the question of when exactly on June 8th will this update become available to download.
