The upcoming Minecraft drop is set to bring a host of major features to the game, ranging from vegetation such as leaf litter and dry grass to new variants of mobs like cows and pigs. Apart from this, the update is also set to significantly overhaul the landscape and generation in many biomes.

The Bedrock edition of Minecraft features two special variants of trees — dying and fallen. The dying tree features exposed logs with the main trunk covered in vines and can generate on dark oak, spruce, and other trees. On the other hand, the fallen trees consist of a single upright stump with logs lying 1-2 blocks away from it.

While these two variants add a unique level of immersion to these biomes, making them feel natural, they are only present in the Bedrock edition. However, the upcoming Minecraft drop for the Java edition could seamlessly accommodate these variants of trees, making the exploration of these biomes even more realistic.

Fallen logs have been a much-requested feature after Mojang teased a picture of a birch forest in Minecraft Live. However, these variants have not made their way to the Java edition, with players relying on a host of Minecraft mods to recreate it. Additionally, the dying and fallen trees would blend in with the new features like leaf litter and falling leaves to create a stunning visual experience.

The addition of the fallen log in the Minecraft drop could also provide a unique challenge in biomes such as the Pale Garden where players are always on the run from the creaking mob. Apart from serving as an obstacle on the floor, it could also be a great and engaging way for players to obtain wood in the game.

Mojang is known to listen to player feedback so it could very well be possible that the developers finally add this feature and take a step forward in their long-term mission of bringing parity between the two editions. With rumors of the game drop set to arrive in Spring, players will have to wait for the update to go live to see if this unique feature makes its way to the Java edition.
