Announcements

Minecraft Live 2021 announced the additions and changes to both Minecraft in the form of The Wild Update which includes the voted in allay, the Deep Dark (being postponed from 1.18 to 1.19) and swamp features promised in MINECON Live 2019. Seasonal adventures in Minecraft Dungeons were also announced. On November 2, 2021, both Java and Bedrock editions of Minecraft came to Xbox Game Pass for PC and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate as part of the Minecraft PC Bundle. Both editions can be played from the Minecraft Launcher.^[3]

Mob Vote

As with MINECON Earth 2017 and Minecraft Live 2020, viewers were able to vote for a new mob to be added to the game in a future update. Each mob received its own video justifying its inclusion.

The mobs that were on the vote were the glare, allay, and the copper golem.

• The glare^[4][5] would have been a small ghost-like mob that would have been able to alert players to an area that is dark enough for hostile mobs to spawn in.

• The allay^[6][7] is a small fairy-like mob that is able to collect greater amounts of an item that is given to it. It picks up dropped items in loaded chunks and is able to carry up to a stack at a time,^[8] and is not able to duplicate items^[9] or take items out of chests.^[10] It drops the items that it collects when in range to the player, but can also return items to a note block^[6] that has been played.

• The copper golem^[11] is a small robot-like mob that is created with copper. This idea was scrapped in 2021, but returned for the upcoming game drop Fall Drop 2025. ​

The mobs that lost the mob vote are shelved indefinitely, and may or may not be added in the future.^[12] Despite having lost the vote, the copper golem has been selected to be part of the upcoming Fall Drop 2025.

Results

Voting took place in two rounds. The losing mob, the glare, was eliminated from consideration after the first round. The winner of the second and final round was the allay.
