Minecraft Update 1.6 -- Maps!

9 Comments

Posted April 27, 2011 - By Nikole Zivalich

Minecraft's creator Notch is already working on the game's next update, 1.6. The update will mostly address existing bugs and glitches in the game. 1.6 will only have one new feature, maps! "When you craft a map, you will be able to somehow select how “zoomed in” you want the map to be. It will be centered on the location where you craft it, and it will fill in as you explore the land. If you go outside the edges of the map, it will stop updating, so each map is of a specific area. (like real maps!)" A release date for this update has not been announced yet.
