Mojang announces Minecraft 1.21 update's official name

All the major updates for Mojang's sandbox have official names, and they are usually centered around the update's highlight. But the thing with the Minecraft 1.21 Tricky Trials update is that it has so many interesting things that figuring out the name was difficult. However, players already had a hunch that Mojang would select Minecraft's trial chambers as the pillar.

The trial chamber is the palatial structure that players can find, just like the end city or the stronghold. Finding these may have been trickier, but the developers released a beta update that adds the trial chambers map; this makes finding these structures much easier and more fun.

The trial chambers will house the upcoming mob breeze, which is very similar to the blaze found in nether fortress. Defeating the breeze will give players two interesting items - wind charge and breeze rod. While the former is interesting, the latter is the one to look out for.

Players can use the breeze rod to make the mace weapon. The mace is extremely powerful, and when used with the wind charge properly, it can deliver a blow that can kill many powerful enemies.

The trial chambers will also have the vault, which can be opened using the trial key. The vault is an interesting block that can only be opened once by a player and it gives a rare item. One of the rare items is the heavy core block, which will be required to craft the mace.

The Minecraft 1.21 Tricky Trials update will be released soon, and it is interesting to see what else Mojang will add before that.
