New Minecraft Bedrock update adds highly anticipated copper golems

We've all been there. After hours of painstakingly destroying, gathering, and filling your Minecraft base with hundreds of blocky items, everything has become a mess. You're not sure where your wood blocks begin and your dirt blocks end. If only there was a cute, handy mob that could help with that. Well, Bedrock players rejoice; you can now try out the glorious new copper collection, including the adorable copper golems. Organization, here you come.

Need some help organizing your base? Then there really is no better helper than the copper golem. The latest Bedrock update for one of the best sandbox games available will allow players to put these extremely useful mobs to the test, alongside a whole host of copper-related features.

You'll need to enable the experimental features toggle in your Minecraft world settings first, then you'll be able to summon your copper helper using some copper and carved pumpkins.

The copper golems are pretty straightforward. Drop your items into a copper chest, and your helpful golem will then sort through them, popping them into the most appropriate storage chests in your base and sorting items by type.

That's not all. The experimental features in Bedrock also introduce the aforementioned copper chests, as well as a range of craftable copper tools and armor. It is worth noting that toggling on experimental features may cause your world to crash, break, or become incompatible with future updates, but I'd say these cute little guys are definitely worth it.

The Bedrock update also comes with new accessibility features, such as an added screen narrator enumeration to UI buttons when adding a new server. There are also some tweaks within certain biomes, like trees now generating more sparsely in Groves and more frequently in Snowy Plains.

Other bug fixes and improvements include leashed mobs no longer being able to be attached to walls, emoting players no longer getting stuck in a boat, and the spawn point can now be set in The End through a command, to mention a few.

There's a whole host of new tweaks, improvements and bug fixes in the latest update. You can read all about it here.

A collection of copper goodies also dropped in Java this week, introducing decorations like copper torches, lanterns, chains, and bars. Organization is clearly on Mojang's mind, as last month's update introduced the new shelf block, finally allowing hoarders - I mean, players, to display all their treasures on their walls.
