Frostburn Update

The Frostburn Update is the name for Java Edition 1.10, a major update released on June 8, 2016. It added some new features such as skeleton/zombie variants in snowy biomes and deserts respectively, polar bears, structure blocks for saving/loading structures in worlds, and an auto-jump feature.
The official name for the update, the Frostburn Update, was revealed on June 8, 2016, in a blog post on the Mojang website, the same day the update was released.https://web.archive.org/web/20160608153158/http://www.mojang.com/2016/06/minecraft-110-an-update-of-fire-and-ice/
Development began very shortly after 1.9 (the Combat Update) was released, and snapshots began the week after 1.9.3 and 1.9.4 were released, in mid-May. Only 3 snapshots and 2 pre-releases were released for 1.10, between May 18, 2016, and June 8, 2016.
Mojang released the first pre-release on June 2, 2016, and the second on June 7, one day before the update was released.
1.10 had only three snapshots and two pre-releases, tying it with 1.1 as the version with the least development versions; if only snapshots are considered, it is the smallest outright.
== Notable features ==
=== Additions ===
* 18 new sound events, plus 2 new ambient sounds.

* 1 new particle: fallingdust.
* 1 new command: .
* 4 new NBT tags:
** FallFlying, ZombieType, ParticleParam1 and ParticleParam2.
* Fossils.
* 5 new blocks:
** Structure void, magma block, nether wart block, red nether brick (now called red nether bricks) and bone block.
* 3 new mobs:
** Polar bears, strays (variant of skeletons), and husks (variant of zombies).
=== Changes ===

* Endermen now spawn in the Nether.
* Magma cubes now spawn about twice as often.
* Skeletons now shoot the arrow they are holding in their off-hand.

== Trivia ==
*This update has the fewest amount of snapshots to date, with a mere 3 compared to the 20–30 from previous updates.
*The time span between the releases of 16w20a and 1.10-pre1 was only 2 weeks, unusual based on Mojang's history, as 1.8 and 1.9 both took around a year or so to develop.
*This update's changelog continues the trend of having "Removed Herobrine" at the very end.
*The update had only 2 further revisions, 1.10.1 and 1.10.2, which drastically shrunk from 1.7 (with 7 revisions), 1.8 (9 revisions), and 1.9 (4 revisions).
**This trend of only two revisions continued for two and a half years, up until 1.13.2.
== Further revisions ==
*1.10.1 fixed "some of the most annoying reported bugs."
*1.10.2 was released soon thereafter to fix a crash from 1.10.1.
