This is arguably the biggest talking point in regards to the Minecraft 1.19 update. A terrifying new hostile mob called The Warden will be coming to the update. It will be the strongest mob, above Ender Dragon and the Wither.

It will spawn only when the sculk shrieker is activated twice and will smell and hear the players hunt them down. The Warden is the most horrifying mob as it can easily kill players with just one or two hits.
