Mojang goes over Minecraft's Netherite Ingot, part of the upcoming Nether update

Mojang is hard at work on a Nether update for Minecraft, and it's going to include a bunch of new content and features. The team is putting together new articles on the official Minecraft blog to introduce players to these items, and this week they focus on the Netherite ingot.

“We decided to add netherite for two reasons. With the Nether update, we felt that we wanted to create a long-term goal for the players, and reward them for spending time in the Nether. We also felt that this was a chance to introduce a brand new material to work with – and that it was the perfect time to do so.” - Jens Bergensten, Chief Creative Officer
