Starting a survival world in Minecraft can be made easier by creating essential farms that automate resource gathering. Key farms to include are: 1. Crop farm: Grows wheat, carrots, and potatoes for food. Use water canals for irrigation and automate harvesting with villagers or pistons. 2. Mob farm: Collects resources from hostile mobs like gunpowder and bones. Build underground or in dark towers, using platforms and water channels for efficiency. 3. Iron farm: Provides a steady supply of iron ingots. Set up with villagers, beds, and a zombie to spawn golems, and use traps to collect iron. 4. Sugar cane farm: Grows sugar cane for crafting and trading. Plant near water and automate harvesting with pistons and observers, stacking crops for space efficiency. 5. XP and enchanting farm: Generates experience points for enchanting tools and armor. Use mob grinders with spawners or a furnace farm for smelting items for XP. These farms ensure a steady supply of food, gear, and resources, enhancing the overall Minecraft experience.

Automatic farms in Minecraft streamline resource collection, allowing players to focus on exploration and creativity. They utilize redstone mechanics, hoppers, and villagers to operate independently, generating essential materials. 1. Automatic Wheat/Carrot/Potato Farm: Villagers plant and harvest crops; hoppers collect produce, sustaining food supplies. 2. Sugar Cane Farm: Observers and pistons break mature sugar cane, with water channels transferring it to hoppers for crafting. 3. Bamboo Farm: Grows faster than sugar cane, providing renewable fuel or scaffolding. 4. Cactus Farm: Cacti break naturally when adjacent to a block, allowing for easy collection. 5. Mob Farm: Creates a dark environment for spawning hostile mobs, which are funneled into a drop zone for experience points and drops. 6. Iron Farm: Villagers and a zombie spawn iron golems, which are eliminated for a steady supply of iron ingots. 7. Kelp Farm: Kelp is harvested by pistons and can be smelted into dry kelp for fuel and experience points. 8. Pumpkin and Melon Farm: Observers activate pistons to break pumpkins and melons, directing them into hoppers for food trading. 9. Wool Farm: Sheep graze on grass blocks with dispensers and shears collecting wool automatically. 10. Honey Farm: Bees in hives allow dispensers to collect honey with glass bottles for crafting and food items. These farms simplify gameplay and enable players to engage in other activities or remain AFK while resources are collected.

In 2025, McDonald's introduced the Minecraft Movie Meal, targeting adults who enjoy the game and collector culture. The meal includes a choice of a Big Mac Meal or a 10-piece Chicken McNuggets Meal, medium fries, and a drink, along with unique add-ons: a limited-edition Nether Flame BBQ Sauce, one of six collectible toys reimagined in Minecraft form, and a digital unlock code for exclusive Minecraft skins and a McDonaldland Add-On Pack. This offering reflects a shift towards catering to adults seeking nostalgic and intentional experiences, as food prices rise and Gen Z emerges as a significant consumer group.

Mojang has introduced two new chicken variants in Minecraft Snapshot 25W06A: Warm Chickens and Cold Chickens. Warm Chickens have toasty brown feathers and thrive in sun-kissed biomes, laying earthy-colored eggs. Cold Chickens feature bluish-gray plumage and inhabit frosty Taiga regions, producing striking blue eggs. Players can attract these chickens using wheat, beetroot, or pumpkin seeds, which can also be used for breeding. Offspring may inherit any variant from their parents. The classic Temperate Chickens remain in milder climates, known for their white feathers and white eggs.

Snapshot 25W06A introduces Cactus flowers to Minecraft, which grow atop Cactuses in specific biomes: Deserts, Badlands, Eroded Badlands, and Wooded Badlands. The flowers are pink and their growth is influenced by the height of the Cactus, with a 10% chance of sprouting on one or two-block tall Cactuses and a 25% chance on three-block tall Cactuses, provided there are no obstructions. Players can harvest the flowers by breaking them with their hands or tools, and breaking Cactus blocks will also yield flowers. Cactus flowers cannot be propagated with bone meal. They can be placed on various blocks for decoration and can be crafted into pink dye. The flowers attract bees, which can be fed to baby bees to expedite their growth, and they can also be composted with a 30% chance of filling one layer, potentially yielding bone meal.
