Combat Test 5 is the fifth experimental version of a future combat revision.[1][2] Although it is a development version for a future release, this combat experiment is a fork of 1.15.2 Pre-release 2. This version was released on Reddit and Minecraft.net, but it does not appear in the launcher.

    • Saturation is not used when healing damage, and is only relevant to other actions that drain the hunger bar.

  • Reintroduced upwards knockback when hitting players in the air.
  • Players now get knockback from hits that deal less than half a heart of damage, including no damage.

Notes[]

  1. Unzip this file in the .minecraft/versions folder.
  2. This change was made before Bedrock Edition's unarmed attack damage was lowered from 2♥ to 1♥ in 1.18.30, which cited parity with Java Edition as a reason.
