The next major Minecraft content update will feature plenty of new ways for players to express themselves and interact with the expanding Minecraft world. One new feature is armor trims, which provide a new level of customization for armor. With the latest Minecraft: Java Edition snapshot, Mojang Studios is introducing new armor trim changes in addition to everything else included.
Minecraftplayers got the chance to test armor trims for the first time in arecent Minecraft: Java Edition snapshot, and already the new feature is being tweaked. With the latest snapshot, players can now apply armor trims to leather armor as well, and can use all material types on every armor (meaning you can now use the same material an armor is made out of for its armor trim).
There are also other changes in this snapshot, such as an updated Create New World screen and much more. While armor trims are reserved for the upcomingMinecraft 1.20 update, other changes and fixes may arrive for thebest PC gamemuch sooner, depending on feedback from players testing the snapshots.
