Announced during the debut episode of Minecraft Monthly, a new monthly news broadcast for the game, the update will bring with it a range of new features, including rideable camels, when it launches “later this year.”

According to the official announcement, the name “represents the journey that Minecraft takes us on,” while the new features are intended to help players express themselves and tell their own stories within Minecraft’s blocky world.

And, it’s the journey – your trails – that ties it all together. The Minecraft worlds belong to the players – and so do the stories, or tales, about those worlds.”
