Mojang will soon drop the Minecraft April Fools update for 2025. The Swedish game company releases hilarious and fun snapshots every year on April 1 as an April Fools' joke. However, the developers have yet to drop a hint about what they have in store for the snapshot this year.

With that in mind, here is what fans can expect from the Minecraft April Fools 2025 update.

Expectations from the Minecraft April Fools 2025 update

Mojang has been releasing Minecraft April Fools updates for several years now. In 2022, the studio launched a hilarious one-block-at-a-time-themed snapshot where players could only hold one block. The next year, the developers released a voting update where gamers voted for several random features to be activated while they played the game.

Likewise, in 2024, Mojang went all out and released an entire realm inspired by a poisonous potato, which also included a new boss mob. The dimension contained various blocks and items related to the poisonous potato. Since this content was very enjoyable, the 2024 snapshot is considered one of Mojang's biggest April Fools updates.

Considering the content that has been offered with such releases so far, this year, the developers could launch an entirely new dimension with hilarious features or use some odd material to create a unique boss mob. The developers could also offer an update related to the A Minecraft Movie. They might also release something completely bizarre that players have never seen.

For the past few months, Mojang has been heavily invested in promoting the upcoming film, A Minecraft Movie, which will be released in theatres on April 4, 2025.

Since April 1 is extremely close to the release date, it can be a perfect opportunity for Mojang to promote the feature film further. Hence, the 2025 April Fools update can be about the A Minecraft Movie. It can contain the popular blue cube that film characters hold or even the blue portal that connects the Overworld to the real world.

The update could also add Jack Black as another Steve in Minecraft's world. Since the actor and his character from the game's movie — Steve — are both quite funny, he will fit perfectly into the April Fools content.
