Minecraft Live 2021

Minecraft Live 2021 is an ongoing event that went live on October 16, 2021 at 4 PM UTC. It will announce the next update after Caves & Cliffs: Part II and will contain a mob vote.

Announcement
The event was mentioned in a video released by Mojang Studios called "Caves & Cliffs Special: Looking Forward". Agnes Larsson said that the next major update would be announced at Minecraft Live 2021.

The event was later formally announced in a video by Mojang Studios released on September 2, 2021.

Mob Vote


As with MINECON Earth 2017 and Minecraft Live 2020, there will be a mob vote, in which the winning mob will be added to the game in a future update. Each mob received its own video justifying its inclusion.

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


 * The glare is a small ghost-like mob that will be able to alert players to an area that is dark enough for hostile mobs to spawn in.


 * The allay is a small fairy-like mob that will be able to collect greater amounts of an item that is given to it. It picks up dropped items in loaded chunks and will be able to carry up to a stack at a time, and cannot duplicate items or take items out of chests. It will drop the items that it collects when in range of a note block.


 * The copper golem is a small robot-like mob that is created with copper. It is attracted to copper buttons, which would also come with the golem if it wins. According to Ulraf on Twitter, the copper golem can have the oxidation removed with either an axe, or being struck by lightning. It will also turn into a statue at full oxidation.

Failing mobs are less likely to be added to the game, but they still do have a chance to be implemented.

Announcements
It was announced that the Warden and other Deep Dark features would be moved into the next update, which is assumed to be 1.19.
