- Work is continuing to bring Skyblock over to Bedrock. There is no ETA for this yet.
- We are reading all the forum posts which come in about Skyblock. Myself and @rubik_cube_man have been working with @Younisco to go through a lot of the suggestions and you should see replies form Younisco soon (we've all been a bit busy this past week!).
