To the dismay of many players, it is now a known fact that the Warden will not be released into the game in the Minecraft 1.18 update.

The Warden is a new hostile mob that will be introduced along with the Deep Dark biome in the game. The Deep Dark is going to be the lowest point in the game below Y level 0 and will feature darker caves with new features.

This was supposed to release along with the Minecraft 1.18 update but has been pushed back. The reason for this was revealed in Minecraft Live 2021 which took place in October.

The developers from Mojang stated that they will be adding a new naturally generated structure, called the Ancient Cities inside the Deep Dark, and also many other Sculk blocks that will pick up vibrations. The Wardens will also spawn here and will be able to hear and smell out the player.

Due to the inclusion of the newer additions, the whole biome and the Warden in Minecraft have been pushed back to the next The Wild Update. This update is scheduled to release sometime next year, but the exact time has not been specified.
