By doing so, you will build items, which can float in lava, look neat, and last longer.
New environments and biomes:
In Minecraft, when you explore places in the Overworld, you will encounter various types of environments known as biomes. Biomes contain icy tundra, jungles, forests, deserts, swamps, and Badlands, which are considered to be common. Players can explore the Nether through an Obsidian portal, and it was just a single biome. But through this new Nether Update, you will get the Nether environment, which the players are used to and go by the name Nether wastes. The update has added numerous biomes into the Nether as well.
Basalt Delta:

The Crimson Forest:
This is a fungal forest, which has eerie lights and massive mushrooms. You can climb the Weeping Vines within the overgrown biomes and farm the Nether Wart. The air in this forest is said to be pretty thick and carries spores. Through this Nether Update, you will get the chance to mine “Shroomlights”, which are glowing mushrooms and get light up all the dark areas in this environment.
Bastion Remnants:
The Bastion Remnants stands out as a civilization in the Nether’s version and it is a Blackstone ruin that is filled with both Piglins and Hoglins. It is said to spawn in each of the Nether biomes excluding Basalt Delta, as it acts equivalent to villages. The place is good for players as it will enable them to loot and explore the structures. Apart from that, it will also act as a base camp for the players as it will keep away all the enemies.
Soulsand Valley and Warped Forest:
The Soulsand Valley in this new Nether Update is a desert, which is created through Soul Soil and Soul Sand. The environment is pretty scary as it will slow down the players and is filled with skeleton aplenty, basalt pillars, and fossils. On the other hand, the Warped Forest is considered to be the least dangerous area in the Nether world. This blue forest is filled with all types of strange fungi and vegetation.
New creatures and enemies:
The Zog Piglins are known to attack the players and they are everywhere in the Nether world, but in this new Nether Update, you will encounter their corrupted versions. These new Piglins are the members of a civilization, which is pretty much aggressive and lives in both the Nether wastes and Crimson Forests. If players do not prepare themselves with the right armor, the Piglins will attack them. But they will definitely do trading with the players for some gold ingots. You will come across are the Hoglins who are aggressive and huge creatures and live in the Crimson Forests. Lastly, the Striders are passive creatures and the latest addition and its long legs help them to walk over the lava.
The Ruined Portals:
