Minecraft 1.19.3 pre-release 2 patch notes: Tooltips changes, bug fixes, and more

Mojang has already dropped Minecraft 1.19.3 pre-release 2, just a day after their first pre-release version. This means that the next minor update for the sandbox game is nearly complete and will be released very soon. Pre-releases are the last stages of the process before an update, where Mojang checks and fixes minor details before releasing the official version.

With the first pre-release, the developers also announced that if everything goes as planned, they will release the 1.19.3 update on December 6, 2022. This update will feature some interesting new features like Piglin heads, new Vex designs, mob heads on note blocks, and more. Interestingly, the Minecraft 1.20 update features will also be made available, but only under the experimental resource pack.
