Mojang has been hard at work preparing the game's 26.3 update, including a new biome, blocks, mob eggs, and a plethora of other new additions.
However, snapshot 3 for the update has added one of the most deceptively game-changing blocks to the game: cushions.
Cushions!
After roughly 17 years, players can now sit down in Minecraft!
Cushions come in all colors currently available in the game, allowing for them to fit into any of your existing builds and palettes perfectly. Right clicking a cushion, no matter what it's placed on, allows players to sit down on them.
Players are already discovering just how massive the implications of the new block is for builders. Cushions can be placed on ANY flat surface, and don't currently collide with players or other blocks.
What does this mean in-game?
Not only can you place cushions on any blocks like slabs and stairs, but you can put them INSIDE other blocks as well! Place them inside of cauldrons, below any other blocks, and add an extra layer of building that was previously impossible in vanilla Minecraft.
The best part is that cushions are available already with the Minecraft 26.3 Snapshot 3 update! You can already jump in and play around with the new block with your friends on a Kinetic Hosting server. Try things out and poke around in with the new blocks completely risk free thanks to our 7-day money back guarantee if you end up not enjoying our server hosting.
Mojang makes their snapshot server files accessible on their official news posts as well, meaning you can always go back and experiment with others as well if you've missed the previous snapshots.
If you have the chance to hop into the latest update and get creative with cushions, consider sharing some screenshots of what you come up with in our Official Discord Server!
