Minecraft's latest beta is here: Patch notes

The announcement came from Jay Wells, a community lead at Mojang. The team had been working tirelessly on the update for a while and has now put it out.

This beta introduces the experimental new trading features. Enable this in your world settings, and you can try out the changes to the wandering trader and villagers.

Wandering trader deals are revamped to be slightly cheaper and have better items. Furthermore, villagers are getting biome-specific enchanted books if they are a librarian.

Mojang said this:

"A novice Librarian could sell the best enchantment in the game! For some players, this felt too random and made trading feel overpowered when compared to using the Enchanting Table or searching for Enchanted Books in structures."

Mojang also increased the amount of diamond ore found in the deepest parts of the Minecraft world. The goal was to make it more rewarding to mine for this precious resource in the deepslate levels.

Other bug fixes include:

• Strays play the correct sound when firing bows
• Equipment sound is now played when switching between identical armor pieces, even if they have different enchantments or trims
• The third-person camera no longer clips through Snow, Mud, and Soul Sand
• Pickaxes will now mine Pistons and Sticky Pistons quickly
• Gamers will now have a way to send a one-way message to Creators so they can provide feedback on Marketplace items
• Throwing an Eye of Ender now causes Sculk vibrations
• Minecarts now constantly emit Sculk vibrations when moving on Rails, even if they are empty
• Dying Leather Armor in Cauldrons and tipping arrows now emits Sculk vibrations

They also detailed their awareness of a crashing issue. The fix hasn't been included, but it's being worked upon:

"We have a known issue in this Beta Preview which may cause a crash when using the search bar within the Marketplace. We are working on a fix for this and hope to have it addressed as soon as possible, thank you for your patience!"
