Minecraft Mob Vote 2022: Everything you need to know

Minecraft Live is on the horizon with a brand new mob vote consisting of the Sniffer, Rascal, and Tuff Golem. This is Mojang's biggest event of the year, where they reveal loads of new features, updates, and other projects that they've been working on. Mob voting is a great way to give fans some control over what gets added into the game.

In this mini-event, players are offered three new mobs with basic information about each of them as well as their features. It is the community's responsibility to vote for their favorite mob that they want to see in the game. The winner will be decided after two rounds, with each round eliminating one mob. The mob with the most votes will be added with the game's next major update.
