We have been trying to find the words, but all of us here at Minecraft are heartbroken over the loss of Technoblade. He meant so much to our community and brought so much joy. He will be missed dearly. 🐷👑🗡️
Ahh! I got promoted to Vanilla

Game Director! It feels surreal that me, this shy & anxious girl, would get this dream job of mine. I want to send just so many thanks & love to all of you that in any way supported me or just accepted me being me. Thank you <3 (1/6)
We want it to take really long time for copper to oxidize in Minecraft. I'm curious - approximately how many Minecraft days do you think there should be between each oxidation state of the copper block?
Tweaking some values for the Lush caves! I loooove seeing all the epic environments we get when Lush Caves generate in our new cave systems! Have definitively reached the point when we don't want to stop playtesting because there are just so many exciting things to explore!
Today we are doing a Pride walk/run/anything else you prefer at Mojang ☺️ Let's celebrate love and diversity every day, every year and all the time! 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️❤️
Hiii everyone! We are seeing questions about if you can make copper stay in a certain state - and yes you can! So if you really want a copper block to be copper-orange or semi-green forever then there will be a way to achieve that 😊 Have a great day!
Time for 3 weeks vacation! Awwrr I love my job so much and am extraordinary thankful I get to work with this just beautiful game, community and team ❤️ But rest is important too! I hope you all will be able to take time to relax when you want to or need it 😊
Cherry blossom pink hair to celebrate the Trails & Tales release! (cred to my daughter for coming up w the hair colour idea ☺️)! 🌸💕🌸💕🌸 I hope you all are having a lovely time with the update! 🌸💖 It truly was a beautiful team work to create it 🥰
I just really want to thank everyone that made
#MinecraftLive
possible and everyone who watched it and cheered us on! I'm so very proud of and thankful for the full team❤️. Thank you all!
Iihh I think it's so pretty and cute!? 🥺🌸🥺🌸
We have many times seen lovely suggestions to add Cherry blossom to Minecraft ☺️ it feels beautiful that we now were able to add it☺️
A NEW biome is on its way in 1.20: The cherry blossom biome!
Hide under the wide canopies, stroll along the pink flower carpet blocks, and utilize the cherry tree for a brand new wood set!
🌸
We have seen so many understanding and encouraging reactions on today's announcement, and I really wanted to thank you all for that! We truly have a just lovely community ❤️
Found this beautiful landscape really close to spawn! I think it's so inspiring 😊There was also a cute village by the ocean nearby! Seed -1364820508976021143 for both Bedrock and Java <3
The release of Caves & Cliffs: Part II is such a big and amazing thing! It is hard for me to put words on how excited I am. I'm so very very very proud of and thankful for the full team!❤️Haha all the feelings! 😊This truly is the update that ROCKED the world!
Yes! Finally got my first vaccine dose! If we do this together, we can make the world a happier place ❤️ it's important all of us who can get vaccinated do so, also to make the world safer for those who can't. Also: many thanks to everyone being part of developing the vaccines!
I went to the office today and found out we got an updated Official Mojang Ettiquette on our bathroom doors! It brought me joy, so I thought I could share it with all of you 😊
Amazing art by
@wChiwi
❤️
It's so beautiful to see the armors you all create and also all the ideas you share! Thank you thank you thank you❤️A thing I also really like with the trims is that they add new and more value to lots of existing materials - like another use for copper is indeed quite lovely😊
We are doing lots of play testing, and we keep finding so many epic and inspiring places in the Caves&Cliffs part two world gen! I can't stop exploring😊. Look at this lake for example! It looks like a crater lake with a rather spectacular Ice Spike kingdom on the peninsula!
Ahh this!! 😍🤩 I'm so extraordinary excited! Both work-wise and as a Minecraft player! And I'm so very very proud of and thankful for the full team! This is a huge update! ☺️ And thanks a lot to everyone of you in the community for all the help and support during development! ❤️
Hii! We would love to hear all your questions about Caves&Cliffs. It can be about certain features, about the split of the update or anything else you want to ask related to it :). Feel free to share your questions in a thread to this tweet. Thank you! 😊💖
Some more lightning rod chaos! We are testing an increased radius for lightning rods! ^^
The ridicolously common lightning strikes are only for testing purpose ;)
Hi all! I hope you are well <3 I recently came back from
#TED2022
and it was such a lovely experience! Before my talk I was very nervous indeed (and excited!). And now I feel inspired, happy and very thankful (and sleepy!)! [1/9 ..oops long thread ☺️]

Caves & Cliffs: Part II is released! 🥳 Lots and lots of time and love has gone into this update! I hope you all will love it as much as we do! Thank you to everyone that contributed in any way! ❤️ Now it's time for me to play Minecraft all evening!
Awrr this is such a nice jungle area! I love the coral reef, the island with bamboo and a nice open area, the jungle rivers. I truly can't stop exploring 😊 (latest snapshot, seed -3697897128803681940, close to world spawn)
The final mob is the Cooper Golem! What do you think about the mobs now when you have seen them all? ☺️
It was important for us to ensure all mobs have their own unique character, and that they all add a new mechanic you can tinker and have fun with. I'm fond of all of them 😊
Are you forever pushing buttons? Want to craft a new friend? Are Tiny Agnes and Tiny Jens really saved – were they ever lost? Will the Copper Golem get your vote at
#MinecraftLive
on Oct 16?

SNIFFER 🥺💖🥺 I find it real interesting that it's extinct, but as players we can make it happy in our worlds again☺️ it feels like it has a lot of nostalgia, maybe even some sadness, in it's character ☺️ What do you all think about it?
Oh no where is tiny Agnes?! Last year she didn't want to hear about the board games and now this?! Oh well ☺️
I hope you all will be excited about the mobs (I must say I'm really happy about the ones we have this year ☺️)!
Welcome to The Mob Vote! Will Jens find his best buddy? What mobs will you be voting for? Where in the Overworld did Agnes go? What else could possibly go wrong?
In the coming days, we’ll provide all the helpful info you’ll need to make your decision at

on Oct 16!
These two! ❤️ So thankful I got to present the Caves & Cliffs update with
@_Ulraf_
and
@kingbdogz
yesterday! And with the amazing
@LydiaWinters
as well ofc! 🤗
As you know, we try to update Minecraft around a theme, like Update Aquatic, Village & Pillage and now Nether Update. I'm curious; if you could pick the next 3 update themes, what would they be?
Hi everyone! Here is some information about the Caves & Cliffs update! Would be lovely if you want to read the post and watch the video😊 Sending love to all of you! ❤️
From the highest peaks to the deepest caves: the Caves & Cliffs update is more ambitious than anything we’ve done before.
To make sure we can truly live up to the community’s excitement, we’ve unfortunately had to adjust our development timeline:

I do think the frogs are a perfect combination of derpy and adorable!😊

@geoffkeighley
, thank you for inspiring conversations! ☺️
Hope you all are well ❤️
Today we celebrate this queen turning 13 years old! Magnolia is a rescue cat so I don't know the exact date she was born, but we have always celebrated her on May 1st 😻 This cuddly, overall very cool and determined lady has been here with me since I was a teenager ❤️
My 5yo daughter: when I grow up I want to be a mom and a game dev
Me: Exciting! What game would you love to help develop?
Her: A game that's exactly like BotW, except there would be a shrine on the mysterious island so I don't have to go there w a boat
My heart went ♥️😭♥️😭♥️
I'm exploring the new caves under the biggest city on my realm! So far I for example found Dripstone Caves and a geode! So nice to find these new lovely things under my 10 year old world! What have you found under your worlds?Would love to hear (and see,if you have screenshots😊)
One of my favourite things is to create worlds and tell stories about them. This weekend I decided I wanted to try to draw a map. My hand hurts now but iiih it was so fun ☺️☺️
I would love to see your favourite Lush Caves pics! Please share in a thread 😊❤️ thank you so much in advance! Oh and ofc also share any feedback you might have - always very appreciated!
On Oct 16, Minecraft Live is coming to a zombie-inducing screen near you!

I have seen many questions on if there will be a Minecraft Live event/Minecon this year - and I'm super happy to say there indeed will be a broadcast! And we will for sure show some exciting new things then ;). More info will come next month - so stay tuned for that!
Aww I love this picture of
@PremsterL
and me from Minecraft Live 🥰 Laura you are just amazing!
Thank you so much
@lovestrandell
for taking so many nice pictures during Live!
One day until Wild Update!☺️This pic is from a greenhouse that's connected to a library in one of the newer towns in my dear, old
#Minecraft
world. After release I want to find Allays to get more life to this expanding town, would be so charming with allays flying around ☺️[1/2]
I very very much am looking forward to continue to work on
#Minecraft
updates and the creative vision of Minecraft, together with our amazing teams at Mojang Studios and ofc also together with all of you, the community <3 (2/6)
It's so exciting to see what all of you lovely folks out there want to do with the new features we add! For the things showed at
#MinecraftLive
: did you get inspired to build something specific? Go on an adventure? Explore something or tell stories about something? Etc etc :)
Awwrr and I also need to send special thanks to my team and everyone I collaborate with at Mojang Studios! This is a collaboration and my job would literally be impossible without all of you! You are super stars and I am thankful for you all each day! (6/6)
I feel our job is to inspire you all to play
#Minecraft
in your own way and, most importantly, to just bring you as much delight as we possibly can. Again - thank you all for being here for us Minecraft devs, you all mean a lot to me and the rest of the team! (5/6)
Me and a friend got really inspired by this location - so we started to build a new town😊 It's located in the far north in my
#Minecraft
world and is shared between two kingdoms. Have you all found any locations recently that inspired you? I would love to see😊
The very clever and thoughtful
@jeb_
is still my manager and I will continue to learn so much from him. Thank you Jens for always being a good role model and for believing in me. (3/6)
@henrikkniberg
Henrik!❤️ First I just need to say THANK YOU! You have added so much value to our amazing team and our beloved game. You are passionate and truly cares about our players - seeing your close community collaboration has inspired us all!
I am so very happy about this, but also want to acknowledge that many are struggling. For example we are living in a pandemic! It's okay to not be okay. If
#Minecraft
(or any other game) in any way can bring you joy, that would just be beautiful. (4/6)
It's sooo exciting to see how beautifully you all have feedbacked on the new C&C part 2 world gen! I wanted to ask: how is the survival experience with the new world gen? For example, has the mining experience changed? What is better and what can we improve? :)
I found some games I drew as a young child. Aww, I wish I could tell that little child that she one day would be crafting games for reals ☺️ the picture includes a list of monsters and items and all their stats. Unfortunately I don't remember what all the little icons means 😊
I realized I haven't shared my Mojavatar! Quite late - but here it is! It was a lot of fun to create ☺️
Just epic work on the Mojavatar Maker

And the last one: tuff golem! ☺️💖 I love that you can use it to decorate your builds, but then it also gives beautiful story telling moments since it sometimes comes alive ☺️✨ I would love to hear which one is your favourite and why? ☺️
Ahh I miss the time when all games came with manuals! Some where like little books. I loved to smell the manual when I got a new game (did anyone else do that too? ☺️), and then read each little sentence in it! For example, look at these treasures I kept for 22 years now <3
Thank you for always asking us so many good questions! In this video Alex and myself are answering some of them 😊 I hope you will enjoy the video and that you all will have a lovely weekend ❤️
.. also ahhh June 8 (= part 1 release) is so soon 😄🎉
Couldn’t we have released everything in a single update? And how will the new version numbers work?
In this third Caves & Cliffs Special, we answer some of your most burning questions about the upcoming update – and look forward to Part II!

Say hi to the rascal, our mischievous hide-and-seek mob! ☺️ I like that it adds variation, and some charming playfulness and mischief, to cave exploring ☺️🌸 what do you all think about the little rascal?
I find it lovely what kind of meetings we have at Mojang?! ^^ Here we are for example comparing Nether in Bedrock and Java side by side to find possible parity breaks!
