I’m not saying Minecraft is entirely infinite, but it definitely has the kind of longevity most other games would kill for. Much of it comes down to the near-endless creative possibilities, but also the mods. Mods and add-ons are what keep the gaming world a-turnin’, and Mojang has now added…add-ons to the game.
Okay, so if you thought this was old news, think again. In a recent post on the official Minecraft website, the Bedrock Edition of the game now has add-ons available in the Marketplace. Mods were typically associated with the Java build (i.e. on PC), but now the studio has made it so you can use them “no matter which device you play on.” Or something like that.
Introducing: Add-ons!
Now you can easily add blocks, items, mobs, recipes, and other content to existing and new Bedrock worlds, making your gaming session more customizable than ever. Discover the free collection of add-ons today – the first of many at Minecraft Marketplace!:… pic.twitter.com/FtYzljrzrB
What seems to distinguish regular mods from these Bedrock add-ons is they add content rather than just replacing. That’s according to a response to a question asked by someone on Twitter/X.
Here’s what the developer says about it. Maybe that’ll clear things up…
Available through Minecraft Marketplace, add-ons let you add new blocks, mobs, items, recipes, and other content to both your existing worlds and new ones.
If you take a look on the Minecraft Marketplace, you can see that add-ons are in their own category. This means they’re not the same as texture packs, mini games, new skins, or adventure maps. Actually, why am I telling you this? You all know how mods work.
And to celebrate these add-ons, Mojang has released a few examples for free. So if you want some new furniture, a pet guinea pig, or to have all the wool in the world (we’re all different), that’s totally a thing you can do now. With add-ons. In the Bedrock Edition. Which, as far as I could tell, were already a thing..?

Players will have to help Addison put up President Hudson signs all over Hyrule in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, but a fan has found a much faster way to do it, and gamers only need a horse to do it. Link is on a very serious mission in Tears of the Kingdom as he has to find Zelda and save Hyrule once again from the evil forces led by Ganondorf himself. While this is a nerve-wracking ordeal that will undoubtedly cause some tension, certain parts of the game break this to give players some room to breathe and have a laugh.
