Minecraft's 2023 mob vote has its first candidate: the crab

A Mob Farm in can automatically kill different creatures to give you resources and XP, with some being better to build first as you expand your sandbox adventure. Having a way to automate your collection of valuable materials can be essential for saving time. While there are many designs for general Mob Farms, it's best to consider what type you need based on the items you already have.

Minecraft is the top-played game of all time more than a decade following its release. Many fans who grew up playing the charming voxel-like game with friends, exploring its grassy plains and eerie mines every weekend, now look forward to things like its annual mob vote, an interactive community event. Following the recent vote’s results, some players expressed worries regarding alleged tampering, prompting Mojang to officially respond.

Watchers of Minecraft Live 2023 might have spotted a little nod from developer Mojang about mob vote losers, and how there’s still potential for them to be added to the game in the future. Losers of the Minecraft Mob Vote have never been added to the game after the fact, but now we could see either the Penguin or Crab in the game in the future.

The controversial Minecraft mob vote is finally over with armadillo claiming victory over penguin and crab, but that hasn't stopped the still-mounting backlash.

The highly anticipated 2023 Minecraft Mob Vote result is in, revealing the next addition to the Minecraft world that will leave players both thrilled and intrigued. The three diverse candidates that made it to this year’s Mob Vote were the Crab, the Armadillo, and the Penguin.

Minecraft Live, developer Mojang's annual livestream celebration of Minecraft, has now been and gone for another year, revealing the winner of 2023's mob vote, new content coming in its 1.21 update, new Star Wars DLC, and more. All of which comes as Mojang announces an absolutely monster milestone: Minecraft has now sold over 300m copies, meaning it's still the best-selling game to date, but is now well over 100m sales ahead of its nearest rival, GTA 5.

As one of the biggest video games in history, Minecraft has maintained a steady stream of content to keep old fans happy while enticing newcomers. Its annual Mob Vote also means players can decide which creature gets added next. However, some want to see this get tossed into lava.

The Minecraft mob vote is in hot water as players have banded together to demand the end of the annual activity. 

Minecraft players have launched a petition demanding developer Mojang ends its annual mob vote — in which the community gets to vote on a new creature to be added to the game — saying the process 'leaves fantastic ideas on the cutting room floor' and only serves to highlight Minecraft's anaemic content release cycle.

When I heard about this year's Minecraft mob vote, I thought to myself, «Gosh, that sounds like fun! Some discussion, some debate, a little bit of good-natured trash talk, and at the end of the day, a new creature for players to enjoy.» Dear readers, I was wrong. A big chunk of the Minecraft community is not happy about the democratic process, and a petition calling on players to boycott the vote has now surpassed an astounding 300,000 signatures.
