Top 5 DLC packs for Minecraft in 2022

5) Angry Bird DLC

Angry Birds is one of the most famous mobile games. Players shoot birds towards evil pigs that steal their eggs. Different birds have different powers that players can use to destroy pigs and win. In May of 2022, both the game companies collaborated to release a Minecraft version of the mobile game.

The developers have incorporated the game's basic gameplay and other exciting features into the DLC. Players can play with friends and fight evil green pigs in a 3D world as opposed to 2D gameplay in the original Angry Birds game. If players are fans of both the games, this is the perfect DLC for them.

1) Mangrove Restoration Project

With the release of the 1.19 update, Mojang added a new Mangrove Swamps biome to the game.

They also created a DLC map for Bedrock Edition, where players can experience Mangrove Swamps throughout the game.

Players can plant trees, interact with beautiful wildlife creatures that gradually spawn once the forest is restored, and even create a forest hut where they can live.
