Season 8

Previous Season: Season 7

Summary
Season 8 (16.07.2021-) is the current season of LtFE. Unlike past seasons, the borders on the map used stone brick and iron bars to map out, rather than the cobblestone or water of previous seasons.

This season was the last season to use Slimefun, having been voted by the Discord to be removed in Season 9.
