Minecraft Earth:Unused features

Since the beginning of Minecraft Earth's development, there were a number of features added to the game that had no actual use in-game, and other features which were announced or hinted at but were never implemented. Some of these features were removed in an update, or were left over from removed features, or were only mentioned in teasers, trailers, or promotional materials, or were simply placeholders for other features. The features are as follows:

Goodbye poster
These mobs appear on the goodbye poster from the Minecraft Earth twitter account, but were not present in the game. Three of them, the Teacup Pig, Mossy Sheep, and Zombie Rabbit, are brand-new mobs never seen anywhere else, which presumably would have been implemented into Minecraft Earth if the game had not been discontinued. •

Pink moobloom


The pink moobloom was an earlier version of the moolip that was later removed from the game files. The pink moobloom is, like its name suggests, a pink recolor of the moobloom. Nothing else is different, with even the flowers on the back being the same except for color.

Magma cow


The magma cow is a scrapped mob that only has a few concept art pieces to prove its existence. It did not appear in the game files.

Hyper rabbit


The hyper rabbit is a scrapped mob that, like the magma cow, only has a few concept art pieces to prove its existence. It also did not appear in the game files.

Reverse chicken jockey


The reverse chicken jockey is a scrapped jockey or mob. It was part of Mattel Minecraft Earth series 19.

Concept mobs
In three images that the Minecraft Earth developer Flexology shared on the Minecraft Earth discord server, there are concept sketches for several unimplemented Minecraft Earth mobs, including the Mooboom, the Fish in Chaps, a sheep, and a reindeer-like mob.

Not present in the journal
These items could be obtained, but they did not appear in the Journal.


 * Golden Apple
 * Obsidian
 * Redstone Ore
 * Red Nether Brick Wall

Spawn Eggs
The wooly cow spawn egg can be found next to the Wooly Cow texture in the game files. It is the only inventory icon representing a spawn egg that can be found.

Spawn egg textures for Cluckshrooms, Horned Sheep, Jumbo Rabbits and Mooblooms can also be found next to each mob's texture in the game files.

One of the game's artists also shared the inventory icons of several unimplemented spawn eggs:

Old Experience reward
This is the old icon for the experience orb. It was replaced but remained present in the game files.

Menu icons
Three unused menu icons are present in the game files. The first two are the old icons for Settings and Adventures, but the third, Skilltree, seems to be a placeholder for the Seasons.

Planned items
Due to Minecraft Earth shutting down, a lot of items never made it into the game. Some already had an inventory texture that went unused.

Minecraft Earth: Apple WWDC Gameplay Reveal
During the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference of 2019, an early version of Minecraft Earth was showcased. Some of the items or mobs that were shown didn't make their way into the game or were changed between the presentation and release.

Player head
A player head is present in Saxs Persson's inventory. It is unknown who the head belongs to, though it somewhat resembles Merl.

Villager
A blacksmith villager can be seen on the top of the tower. They couldn't be obtained in the retail game and were absent from the files.

Baby mobs
A baby muddy pig can be seen at the end of the presentation. In the released version of Minecraft Earth you cannot spawn a baby mob, even if you throw a chicken egg an adult chicken will hatch instead of a baby one.

One of the game's artists also shared the inventory icons of several unimplemented baby mobs:

Other items
Other smaller items seen in the events are:


 * Banners
 * Dispensers
 * Fireworks rockets
 * Item frames

Mob of Me
The mob of me summoned in the event has the agent spawn egg texture instead of its inventory icon.
