Mojang has officially released Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.7, a small but delightful hotfix update that brings both sentimental charm and a playful new loot reward. While this release primarily focuses on stability and minor adjustments following the “Chase the Skies” update, it also introduces two notable additions to the game.
First, players can now find a new 3×3 painting celebrating everyone’s loyal companion—a charming tribute titled “Good Boy”, painted by artist Sarah Boeving. This artwork adds a warm and personal touch to in-game interiors.

Second, the mischievous Chicken Jockey (a Baby Zombie riding a Chicken) now comes with a musical surprise. Defeating this rare mob combination has a chance to drop the brand-new “Lava Chicken” music disc, composed by Hyper Potions—perfect for players seeking quirky collectibles and upbeat tunes.
With no other critical issues reported, this version marks the final build for 1.21.7. Mojang confirms that snapshot development will resume in the coming weeks, bringing more experimental features and updates.
