How Did A $960M Movie Bring 2 New Capes To Minecraft??
We don't use AI to write our Articles! Be aware information may become out-dated.
The release of A Minecraft Movie came alongside two new in-game cosmetics: the Menace and Home capes. Both capes were inspired by the portals featured throughout the movie, with the Menace Cape depicting the Obsidian Gateway, while the Home Cape features the Earth portal, which is exclusive to the movie.
Unlike the various capes that require players to attend an in-person event, both of these capes could be obtained through online promotions. The campaigns ran for a limited time, starting on March 18th 2025 and ending on April 6th 2025.
The Home Cape could be obtained by watching any affiliated Minecraft livestream on Twitch for three minutes, while the Menace Cape required players to watch any affiliated Minecraft livestream on TikTok for three minutes. After completing the requirements, players could redeem a code to claim the respective cape.
Despite being relatively straightforward to obtain, both capes have an interesting detail hidden within their additional models. When a player equips an elytra, Jack Black appears on the cape instead, referencing the iconic scene from A Minecraft Movie where Jack Black and Jason Momoa fly using elytra.
The Easter egg is a small but unique detail that makes the two movie promotional capes stand out from many of the other cosmetics released alongside online campaigns.
