Minecraft 1.7.5 is out tomorrow, a relatively minor update that nevertheless brings a few changes to the popular game.

Server-side performance of the game has been optimized for this update, while Mojang’s easy to use online service ‘Minecraft Realms’ is being expanded to all Nordic countries. Minecraft Realms is a paid service that makes it much easier to organize playing the game with friends online. Mojang also says it is preparing to bring Realms to more countries soon, as it is only available in Sweden at the moment.

The next update of Minecraft will be released after the Game Developer’s Conference in San Francisco, which runs from March 17th-21st. 1.7.6 will include support for a new skin system, among other things. The next major update, 1.8, is already available as a development snapshot, due for full release ‘in 2014’. One of the improvements is described as ‘yay, puppies for everyone!’ – wolf puppies have been around in Minecraft for a while, but version 1.8 will let you feed them to speed up their growth.
