After four years since its announcement, bundles have finally moved out of the experimental phase in Minecraft Java Edition. The latest Minecraft snapshot, 24w39a, officially adds bundles to the game, meaning players no longer need to enable experimental features to use them. Interestingly, recent leaks suggest the next Minecraft update could be titled "Bundles of Bravery". Aside from the bundles now being official, snapshot 24w39a doesn't introduce any major changes.

However, one notable change relates to the carved pumpkin. In this snapshot, wearing a carved pumpkin will now hide the player's marker from other players' maps. Previously, carved pumpkins were mainly used to avoid endermen, but now they offer an additional use in multiplayer. As always, there are bug fixes and technical updates in Minecraft snapshot 24w39a.

Now, let's dive into the patch notes without further delay.
