Minecraft introduces Herdcraft, Mojang’s latest annual joke update, and suddenly I’m a pseudo-summoner with a sentient inventory to command

Mojang has released its annual April Fool's snapshot called Herdcraft, which humorously eliminates the traditional inventory system by scattering items throughout the game world. Players must now use leads to manage their items, similar to handling pets. The community has responded positively, discussing potential future features inspired by this update. Mojang's lead developer mentioned that smaller updates like Herdcraft feel more sustainable and contribute to a dynamic development cycle. While past April Fool's updates have not always been integrated into the game, there is hope that Herdcraft could inspire meaningful gameplay enhancements.

Everything we know about Sulfur Cube in Minecraft

The upcoming release of Chaos Cubed for Minecraft introduces a new underground biome and a creature called the Sulfur Cube. The Sulfur Cube is a passive, bucketable mob found in the Sulfur Caves biome, immune to fall damage, and can split into smaller cubes upon impact. These smaller cubes can grow larger over time when nurtured with golden dandelions. The Sulfur Cube can absorb various blocks, including all wood variants, stone, coral, slime, honey, sculk, froglight, resin, ore, metallic blocks, ice, concrete, sulfur, and cinnabar, but cannot consume walls, stairs, slabs, or fences. Once it absorbs a block, it becomes impervious to damage from player attacks and most mobs, instead being launched away from the attack. Players can retrieve the absorbed block using shears. The Sulfur Cube is expected to debut in the second quarter of 2026, following its appearance in the recent Minecraft Bedrock beta.

While a specific release date for the update has not been announced, it is expected to launch around the summer months, possibly mid-June. Details about the Sulfur Cube's interactions, such as whether it drops items upon defeat or can be tamed or bred, remain unclear.
