Nearly two years after its initial delay, Minecraft’s long-awaited archeology feature is finally on the horizon, with developer Mojang now confirming it’ll be arriving as part of the game’s 1.20 update later this year.
Archeology was originally announced during 2020’s Minecraft Live, and was planned to release as part of the game’s expansive Caves & Cliffs update the following summer. However, as its launch date neared, Mojang – as it grappled with the effects of the coronavirus pandemic – announced it had made the decision to split Caves & Cliffs’ feature list into two, with a second release due before the end of the year. Archeology, though, had been decoupled from even that and would arrive at an unspecified future point.
Skip ahead almost two years and we’re back to today, and the announcement that archeology will finally debut with Minecraft’s next major update.
