The pale garden is a blend of eerie ambiance and stunning beauty. This biome boasts pale oak wood with subtle, sophisticated textures that are perfect for creating elegant or hauntingly beautiful builds. Whether you’re crafting a delicate forest retreat or a creepy mansion, the pale oak is here to help.

The pale moss family, with its soft greens, complements any landscape design. And if you’re the type who loves a pop of color, the resin family of blocks has your back. These bright orange resin bricks practically scream vibrancy and energy, adding a fiery twist to any build.

That said, this biome isn’t just for builders. It’s a survivalist’s challenge, with The Creaking lurking in the shadows. This new mob moves only when not observed and requires players to destroy its heart block to defeat it. You can use this mob to farm for resin clumps, which can be smelted to obtain resin bricks.

Paired with the chilling ambient sounds and the glow of eyeblossoms at night, the pale garden biome is both magical and menacing. Owing to these upcoming additions, the Minecraft 1.21.4 update is shaping up to be one of the best game drops.
