A new Minecraft update -- update 1.18.10 -- is live on all platforms. How big the file size is we don't know, but we do know everything the update it does thanks to the patch notes, but it does do a lot. According to Mojang, the highlights are some "new experimental features with frogs and tadpoles," the addition of the Globe Banner Pattern, a tweak to Iron Golem, and "several more textures to match Java Edition."

Mojang notes that all players should make regular backup copies of their favorite worlds before enabling the aforementioned new features. Meanwhile, it's also important to note that these features are a work in progress and thus also subject to change. To this end, Mojang teases that these new features are "only the beginning of new content for The Wild Update!"

Below, you can read more about these new features and find a link to the full and official patch notes.

EXPERIMENTAL FEATURES:
Frogs and Tadpoles
Frogs will spawn in Swamp biomes
Frogs can croak, jump, swim, and walk on land
Frogs can eat small Slimes, causing a Slime Ball to drop
Frogs can be tempted and bred using Seagrass, but this is just a placeholder food for now
Frogs lay eggs after mating
Frog eggs that hatch spawn Tadpoles
Tadpoles that grow up will turn into a Frog
Tadpoles can swim in water
Tadpoles "jump around" like fishes when on land, and eventually die
Tadpoles grow into a different type of Frog based on the biome they are born in
Tadpoles can be caught in a Bucket

Froglight
Three new Froglight blocks have been added (Pearlescent, Verdant, and Ochre)
The Froglight blocks emit light
The blocks are obtained by luring a Frog close to a small Magma Cube. The Frog will eat the Magma Cube and a Froglight block will drop. Each Frog variant will cause a different Froglight block to drop

Sculk
Sculk block features are now accessible by enabling this toggle
