A Minecraft Movie Live Event: All challenges and solutions

With the upcoming release of A Minecraft Movie, Mojang Studios has created a special in-game event to celebrate the film. Spark Universe and the official team have worked together to make this a reality. Announced during Minecraft Live on March 22, 2025, this limited-time event allows players to experience mini-games inspired by the movie while defending Midport Village from a piglin invasion.

Completing all daily challenges will grant players the exclusive Yearn Cape. This makes this event a must-play for Minecraft fans.

Note: Mojang has extended the movie event by seven days, giving players until April 14, 2025, to complete all quests and get their hands on the limited-edition Yearn cape.

A Minecraft Movie Live Event: All challenges and their solutions explained

A Minecraft Movie Live Event will be active from March 25, 2025, to April 14, 2025. To participate in the event, open the Bedrock edition and click the “Play Movie Event” button. You will then have to download 70 MB of content. There will be a total of six quests in this event.

Quest 1 - Defend the Village!

The first quest of the A Minecraft Movie event consists of three tasks: Wilderness, Mines, and Outer Walls. After completing them, you will get the Boots of Swiftness.

Wilderness: Delivering 5 carts

Talk to Natalie and Dawn to begin. Your goal is to safely deliver five carts through the wilderness while fighting off piglins, illagers, and other mobs. Stick with teammates, use shields, and stay mobile to avoid being overwhelmed.

Mines: 100 ores retrieved

After completing the wilderness task, meet Henry to access the mines. Descend to Level 1 and collect 100 ores, including iron, coal, and redstone. Watch out for attacking mobs. If you die, your resources drop, so return to the elevator to heal and deposit your ores frequently.

Outer Walls: 5 waves defended

Talk to Garret to start this tower defense-style challenge. Defend the walls against five waves of piglins using a bow and arrows. Avoid cannon fire and take the high ground for better accuracy.

Quest 2 - Ghasts Incoming

The second quest, Ghasts Incoming, requires you to defeat 20 ghasts. Enter the live event and talk to Garret. Unlike the first quest, ghasts will now spawn periodically, adding a new challenge. After completing the quest, you will receive the Battle Cry emote.

Outer Walls: Kill 20 Ghasts

Taking down 20 ghasts may seem simple, but some kills might not register due to server traffic or multiple players attacking the same target. To ensure progress, check your kill count regularly. Taking the high ground is the most effective strategy.

Quest 3 – Farm Mobs, Not Crops!

The third quest requires players to eliminate 300 mobs in any of the three available locations. As a reward, you will receive the Mushroom Hat, a fun cosmetic item found in the Dressing Room.

You can choose between the following areas:

Outer Walls: Stand and shoot at endless waves of mobs. This is the easiest way to complete the quest.
Wilderness: A great option if you want to earn extra emeralds while completing the quest.
Mines: The most engaging choice, featuring close-quarters combat and resource gathering.

Try switching between all three locations to make the task less repetitive. Also, keep track of your kills to ensure they register properly.

Quest 4: Protect the Cart!

A new route has opened in the Wilderness, and players must escort and protect three carts, ensuring they remain above 40% HP. This quest introduces a Badlands route, where vexes spawn as additional threats.

Successfully delivering the carts finishes the fourth quest grants players the Kadoosh! emote, which can be used in the Dressing Room.

Quest 5: Low on Iron

The fifth quest challenge takes place at the Outer Walls, where players must survive five waves of attacks while keeping at least two iron golems alive. Initially, five golems defend the gate, but they will fall as they take damage.

Players should prioritize headshots and upgrade their weapons to maximize efficiency. Completing this quest rewards the Jetpack, a cosmetic item.

Quest 6: "Mine Diamond!"

The objective of this quest is to retrieve 60 diamonds from the Mines and to have completed all the previous quests. First, upgrade your pickaxe to iron by visiting the house next to Steve. Level 2 of the Mines will now be unlocked. Go there to start mining diamonds.

You must return near the elevator with the diamonds for them to count. If you can’t find diamonds and it seems they have already been mined, exit and re-enter Level 2 to refresh the area. The reward for completing the last A Minecraft Movie event quest is the Yearn Cape—the grand finale cosmetic reward for completing all the quests.

Now that all six quests are out, don’t wait until the last day. Some of these challenges are grindy and time-consuming. Spread them out and enjoy the journey through Midport Village and beyond.
