Java Edition
1.17
1.17, the first release of Caves & Cliffs, is an upcoming major update to Java Edition announced at Minecraft Live 2020 set to release in mid-2021, which will revamp mountains and cave generation.[1]
Combat changes
The combat system is planned to be reworked in a future update, keeping the cooldown but only allowing the player to attack when fully charged. It is not known yet when those changes will be made, as they are developed in parallel to other features and will make it into the game "when they're good enough". The update in which they are included will also not be a combat-themed update.[2]

1.16.210 is an upcoming minor update to Bedrock Edition with no set release date, which will add new ambient sounds to the Nether, and fixes bugs.[3][4]
1.17.0
1.17.0, the first release of Caves & Cliffs, is an upcoming major update to Bedrock Edition announced at Minecraft Live 2020 with no set release date, which will make additions and revamp mountains and cave generation.[5]
