Overview
- Mojang released the Herdcraft April Fools snapshot for Java Edition on Wednesday, available by enabling snapshots in the Launcher under “Latest Snapshot.”
- The update removes the inventory and replaces it with item and block spirits that follow the player and act on commands.
- Crafting moves onto the ground with a placed grid, and weapons can be ordered to gang up on foes.
- Mojang advises backing up worlds or using a separate folder before installing, with a quick revert by selecting “Latest Release.”
- Players can try build 26w14a on Java Realms, and response ranges from praise to criticism as the prank continues Mojang’s April 1 tradition.
