The recent unveiling at Minecraft Live 2025 has generated excitement with the announcement of an upcoming in-game event dedicated to A Minecraft Movie. This engaging event is timed perfectly before the film’s debut in theaters, providing players with an exclusive opportunity to explore the cinematic universe and earn a special cape.
Overview of the A Minecraft Movie Live Event

The A Minecraft Movie live event is a community-focused in-game initiative that invites players to dive into the storyline and tackle various challenges mirroring elements from the film. Throughout the event, players will assist beloved characters in overcoming hostile entities and fulfilling specific objectives.
Participants can expect an array of thrilling challenge categories, including:
- Defending Midport Village alongside Steve
- Fighting back against Piglins with Garrett
- Mining for essential resources with Henry
- Safeguarding the payload with Dawn and Natalie
Each challenge is inspired by key moments from the movie, allowing players to experience the film’s narrative firsthand as they accomplish tasks. This multiplayer event fosters collaboration among players who can complete quests together. Notably, completing five challenges will award participants with the humorous Yearn cape, a playful nod to the longing for exploration within the mines.
How to Participate in the A Minecraft Movie Live Event

To join the A Minecraft Movie live event, players should access the Bedrock edition of the game. Similar to last year’s Eerie Mojang Office Party, players need to click on the event banner located on the left side of the homepage.
Upon selecting the banner, players will be transported to the live event, where they can engage in challenges and work towards earning the Yearn cape. This exciting event runs from March 25, 2025, through April 7, 2025, across all Bedrock platforms. Notably, those who unlock the cape in the Bedrock edition will also receive it in the Java edition.
With the film’s release just on the horizon, Mojang is keen to amplify interest in this live-action adaptation of the beloved sandbox game. The live event presents a unique opportunity for fans to celebrate the impending launch of A Minecraft Movie, which opens in theaters globally on April 4, 2025.
