Chests in some structures no longer contain any loot. This is known to affect:
Villages
Ruined Portals
Bastion Remnants
Pillager Outposts
Potential cause (thanks to /u/BlaCoiso on the Mojira subreddit)
Structures generated from jigsaw blocks, either through normal world generation or by force generating them using the jigsaw block interface causes chests to generate with no loot

Strangely it seems to work fine with chests in End Cities.
But also doesn't work with custom NBT structures (e.g. through datapacks) containing chests with loot table since 20w22a.
It seems like you can open the chests in spectator mode, which suggests that the game doesn't attempt to generate the loot at all (just places a chest)
According to F3+I, the chests are literally just normal chests with no loot table, which explains why they can be opened in spectator.
Issue also affects previous saves brought into the new snapshot from prior snapshots. All listed newly generated structures spawn empty chests. I have also had it affect dungeons and desert temples in a previous safe ported in as well as a fresh seed.
Hi i have the same bug, i test in solo save and in multi it's the same on all village, empty chests for all village
I heard that in ocean ruins also chests are empty, but hadn't had opportunity to check yet.
Same here I also wrote about it check here MC-186705
I will play on 20w21a and hopefully mojang will fix it.
Just found a ruined portal underwater in my new hardcore world. First I cannot open the chest (probably a mouse issue) and when I did there is no loot inside.
This bug is terrible I started a hardcore world found a village at spawn all the chests are empty! They released a new snapshot and didnt fix this bug? This is a big issue I think? Annoying. I went back to 1.15.
Yes I am playing on android and I find this same issue I just created a new world in beta and found that every single natural spawning chest I have come across is compleatly empty, this is very annoying and I hope this bug will be fixed quickly
@Lureoz Please don't comment just to say 'me too'
@Shannon How can you expect it to be fixed if there hasn't been any snapshots since it was reported?
I hope this gets fixed soon, along with the lag on the new snapshots. Died on a hardcore looking for a bastion, only to then go into spectator and find it had no loot 😞
Ali Akbar please read the report thoroughly, it states that the bug is fixed for a future 1.16 version.
@CalXee - missing gold blocks are intentional ... the portal is "ruined" so is often missing gold, along with parts of it's "complete" structure
I wonder how this bug is listed as resolved. It still is a bug in java 20w22a in old game and new ones I start? By the way, I am using no mods.
Willage unsolved
Desert temples are fine
Shipwrecks are and treasure-chest from treasure-maps are fine
Piglin-structures have empty chests
Nether dungeons are fine
This bug is frustrating. I'm not playing survival at all and did not entered the new Nether yet because it makes no sense. Please, release the update fixing this as a priority, players are getting bored an frustrated
@Ser Yagar snapshots are meant to be less stable than full releases. Also, how this bug may keep you from entering the nether? You can get all the stuff, and the only bugged loot is in bastions and portal ruins, when in overworld it is portal ruins, villages and pillager outposts
@Kai Øverland as you can see, "fixed version" says fixed in "Future Versions - 1.16+" and 20w22a is listed in affected versions. So it's not hard to guess, fix for this issue has not been released yet
I know that snapshots are unstable, and I know the bug is going to be fixed on the next update. I'm just saying that this bug affects chests everywhere. Villages, spawns, Nether portals, and so. This makes no sense to play survival because it's quite frustrating enter for example the Nether to find no loot. So, repeating, I know this is going to be fixed, I'm just saying that it would be considered as an urgent issue, because it's affecting the game experience, in my oppinion
Snapshots are early releases, to gather feedback, squash bugs, ect. They are not intended to be used in a normal world.
What do you think should have happened? 20w22b?
Probably caused by the fix of MC-156161.
