To promote the release of Minecraft Earth, a series of videos starring Mumbo and Grian were produced.^[1] To assist with the production, a special skin pack was given to them; the game lacked the ability to import skins directly.

In 2019, to celebrate the culmination of one trillion views on Minecraft content, Mumbo made a cameo appearance in One Trillion Minecraft Views on YouTube and Counting. This video featured him and Grian riding on a moving house, an actual creation of Mumbo's, which he was pleased to see animated.^[2]

In 2024, a copy of the world used for Season 9 of Hermitcraft was released on the Marketplace, in collaboration with "the Marketplace people."^[3][4] The following year, the world from Season 8 was also released.^[5]

Events

In 2016 he was on a panel at MINECON 2016 which was the first dedicated to the Hermitcraft server.^[6]

In 2018, he attended a panel at MINECON Earth, that was also about Hermitcraft server.^[7] In the beginning the hermits explained what they like about playing in a multiplayer environment with a diverse set of like minded people. They emphasized a need to patient in their meetings because of all of their cultural differences. They then moved on to talking about the hardware and software side of running a server while Mumbo got called out for the amount of lag he creates. The hermits then transition into talking about fostering their own community servers and Mumbo shares the importance of having a dedicated team who works tirelessly to maintain that community. After that they talk about fostering friendships through multiplayer Minecraft and how community games like Grian’s tag and shopping districts are invaluable to the multiplayer experience. They conclude the panel by explaining the work that goes into setting up a new season of Hermitcraft and pranks on the Hermitcraft server.

He was also on similar panel at MINECON Live 2019 about the Hermitcraft Server.^[8]

A Minecraft Movie

In 2025, he made a cameo appearance in A Minecraft Movie alongside several other creators as Auction Attendees at an auction for Steve's belongings. Behind the scenes, he served as a consultant, helping design several potential visual gags in Midport Village and redstone contraptions for the film.^[9] Among these, he helped design devices for an early version of the Steve's Lava Chicken! scene, several designs based off Jared Hess suggesting the use of cactus balls, and a “Piglin Trojan horse.”^[10][11][12] The latter ended up having to be scrapped for a variety of reasons, but got repurposed for one of Mumbo's most popular videos.^[9][13] At one point, he had an altercation with Jason Momoa, the actor who plays the Garbage Man.^[14] Prior to the film's release, he issued a video reviewing the trailer.^[15]

Quotes

	“	Useless machines epitomize what I love most in redstone creations. They are decently complicated from a wiring perspective, incredibly satisfying when built well, and totally pointless. This trifecta of attributes is what I look for in my favorite builds (with pointlessness being the most important).	„
		— Oli being interviewed on redstone[16]

Trivia

• Mumbo was delighted to see the creaking get introduced, having always wanted a "'weeping angel' esque mod [sic]".^[17]
• While visiting the set of A Minecraft Movie, the thing he was most impressed by was the design of the props, singling out a square potato.^[11]
• In 2019, an article on Minecraft.net linked to a video of Mumbo's, recommending it for hiding buttons.^[18][19]
