Special offer
The guys at Mojang Studios Minecraft have shown off a brand new biome and that's the Mangrove Forest we talked about earlier.
Lead Artist Minecraft Jasper Boerstra shared on Twitter a video and screenshots of the new boim - Mangrove Forest. The work on the biome has not yet been completed, so it will not be included in the next patches and beta versions.
In one of his messages, Jasper noted that the developers are closely monitoring player feedback and are going to make changes to the biome based on them. Now they are planning to add more water, bushes and grass.
Not everyone liked the look of the new biome. In the comments, the players note that it is not too similar to the one shown on the concept art.
