Combat Test 4 is the fourth experimental version of a future combat revision.[1] Although it is a version for a future revision, this combat experiment is a fork of 1.15 Pre-release 3. This version was released only on Reddit, so it does not appear in the launcher or in any Minecraft.net blog post.
Additions
Gameplay
- All sword enchantments can be applied to axes in the enchanting table.
- This includes the enchantments Looting, Sweeping Edge, Knockback and Fire Aspect. Axes could previously only receive Sharpness, Smite or Bane of Arthropods through an anvil.

- Added an option to disable shields being activated by pressing crouch.
- Located in the Accessibility menu.
