MINECRAFT JAVA 1.16.2 RELEASED! - By Felicia
Ever since the 1.16 Nether update, the Piglins, as seen in the photo, have seen players taking a peek at their chests - okay, maybe taking a thing or two! In 1.16.2, the Minecraft team has released the Piglin Brute - a Piglin that’s so focused on guarding the Bastion Remnants’ chests that not even gold can distract them!

Piglins:
Added Piglin Brutes
Piglins now become angry with players who open or destroy a Chest Minecart
Tweaked bartering loot
Piglin Brutes are stronger versions of Piglins that live in bastions and protect the treasures there
Unlike the their cowardly and greedy counterparts, the Piglin Brutes cannot be distracted by gold and aren’t afraid of anything
Piglin Brutes attack players on sight, no matter how they are dressed
Piglin Brutes wield axes and don’t need any armor, because they’re just that tough
Respawn Anchors:
Modified how respawn positions are chosen for beds and respawn anchors
Respawn anchors will prioritize cardinal directions over corners
Beds will prioritize the side of the bed the player entered from and then spaces circling around the foot of the bed up to the head of the bed
Respawning players will now face the block that they respawned at
Placing players onto dangerous blocks is now avoided when possible
Villagers:
Villagers now emit green particles when joining a village, setting a home bed, or acquiring a job site / profession
