Minecraft Live 2023: New Mob Vote Choices

Here are the Mob Vote 2023 mob options and their abilities explained in brief. You can choose from the following three options:

Crab: It’s a mob that lives in mangrove swamp biomes and can perhaps drop a claw that’ll help players place blocks further away.
Armadillo: Savanna biome resident that will drop scutes, which are the ingredients for crafting armor for your cute wolf.
Penguin: It’s a friendly creature living in the stony shore biome and can help the player’s boat travel faster.

We have created a dedicated article for the Minecraft Mob Vote 2023 mobs, so check out the linked guide if you’d like to learn more about them.

How to Vote for the Next Minecraft Mob (2023)

You can vote for the next Minecraft mob in three different ways. These are exactly the same as the previous year’s Mob Vote, and those are:

On a Special Bedrock Edition server
Within the Minecraft Launcher
On the official Minecraft website

Since your Microsoft account is connected to each of these options, you will only be able to vote once per account. Voting only in the official ways will contribute to the Mob Vote, so don’t get tricked by any other polls online.

1. Vote In-Game within a Bedrock Server

Similarly to the Minecraft Mob Vote 2022, this year you can vote in-game within a developer-made Bedrock server. Follow the steps below to cast your vote:

First, you will need to sign in to your Microsoft account if you haven’t already. Click on the “Sign In” button on the main menu of the Bedrock edition to get into the game.
After that, click on the “Mob Vote” button at the bottom-left of the main menu.

Also, you will have access to all sorts of cool mini games, parkour courses, and even have an opportunity to meet the “Tinies” themselves. This server will remain open for 24 hours after Minecraft Live 2023 has ended.

2. Cast Your Vote Using Minecraft Launcher

Here’s how you can easily vote for the next mob in the Minecraft launcher:

When you enter the Minecraft launcher app, you’ll see a new “Minecraft Live” tab option appear on the left side. Click on it.

3. Vote on the Official Minecraft Website

If you don’t own the Bedrock edition or your Minecraft Launcher doesn’t work for whatever reason, you can also vote on the official Minecraft website.

First, you will need to visit the official Mob Vote page and log in with your Microsoft account.
Then, click on the “Vote Now” button.

Here, you can select the mob you want to vote for. When you’re done, click on the “Submit” button below.

So, there you have it. Now you know how to vote for and choose one of the mobs that will be added to the game with Minecraft 1.21. You can change your vote until the Minecraft Live 2023 event, so make up your mind and vote for the mob before the official announcement. Which method are you using to vote?
