4J Studios detailed the changes coming to the Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition tutorial mode with the 1.8.2 update in an interview released on Tuesday. All new Easter Eggs are coming along with examples of other new features in the game.
The current Minecraft: Xbox 360 tutorial world is filled with a number of Easter Eggs for players to find while they explore. Paddy Burns of 4J Studios told Hook Shot Inc what the studios plans were with the 1.8.2 update.
"We decided that it would be good to have the tutorial world showing the new terrain features of 1.8.2 (Strongholds, Villages, Abandoned Mineshafts and Ravines), so we have a new world with the previous tutorial training area transplanted in it," Burns said when asked about the new Minecraft tutorial mode.
"Everything beyond the training area has changed," he continued. "We’re also added [sic] a few new mini-tutorials for the 1.8.2 features. We previously added some Easter Eggs elements for a bit of fun, and it went down very well with the players, so we’ve expanded these and tried to be pretty devious with our hiding places for some. It’ll be good to see how quickly they are found this time!"
Some of the new 1.8.2 features include Creative Mode, SuperFlat, the Hunger mechanic, chargeable bows, new mobs and food items.
4J Studios stated yesterday that it has one to two weeks of work left on the 1.8.2 update forMinecraft: Xbox 360 Edition before it can send the update to Microsoft for certification and release. Based on this information, we expect the update to be released between the end of September and two weeks into the month of October.
