Minecraft: patch notes and download size for the latest update

Yesterday, a new update for Minecraft: Wii U Edition was released. This new update didn’t bring nothing but bug fixes and gameplay adjustments, it also added a brand new mini-game: Tumble. If you’re wondering what else was changed/added, why not check out the official patchnotes below?

Here’s the official patchnotes for Minecraft: Wii U Edition – Update 11:

• Added Tumble Mini Game.
• Added Battle Map Pack 3 (Castle, Invasion & Shipyard).
• Added six new achievements for the Battle mini game.
• Re-enabled the previous Birthday and Minecon skin packs for players who had them.
• Battle Mini Game: Made some changes to chest refilling logic to make things harder for players camping beside chests.
• Battle Mini Game: Made some balancing changes to items spawning in chests.
• Battle Mini Game: Fixed some map issues in Cavern, Siege, Ruin, Lair and Atlantis arenas.
• Introduced a ‘vote to kick’ system for mini games. When there are more than three players in a public game, a player will be kicked
• from the game when they have received three votes. This scales down when there are less players.

This update requires 164MB of free space on your Wii U or external HDD (thanks Joe Merrick!), and as you can imagine, it’s required for you to use the online features of the game. To download it, you have two options:

• let the Wii U do its thing if you have automatic downloads activated. You should then have the latest version installed the next time you launch the game;
• if not, you can launch Minecraft: Wii U Edition from the Home Menu (not the Quick Start Menu!), in order to trigger the download manually.
