The latest Minecraft update is pretty standard stuff for the PC game, but Mojang pointed out one special feature: a bug fix for an issue that’s plagued the game for 11 years. It sounds more dramatic than it actually is, though Mojang still felt it worth pointing out and even gave it a proper bug code in the patch notes, MC-1133.
The MC-1133 bug caused footstep sounds to vanish if the player approached the edge of a block. Apparently, the game thought players were walking in midair and removed all noise. You’ll be as noisy as you want from now on, and Mojang went even further and added some extra noise functions to underwater blocks. Any block you tread on in the inky depths will give off a muted version of the usual sound.
