Confirmed new features: armor split into four individual pieces, talismans as a new passive-effect category, and a jump ability absent from the original.
OfficialThree changes are confirmed by Mojang rather than described in previews, and they all reshape how a character is built.
Press previews additionally describe an interconnected explorable world replacing the original's discrete mission select, a reworked enchantment system aimed at more build personalisation, and new dodge and movement options. Those come from hands-off coverage, not Mojang statements, and are marked as press previews throughout this site.
