The final contender for Minecraft’s 2023 mob vote event has been revealed as penguins. While their functionality may be lacking, players are still planning to vote for them simply because they’re cute.
If penguins are chosen, they will be found in the stony shores biome and nearby oceans, waddling around. They may even swim up to players in boats and help move the boat along faster.
Compared to the other contenders, players agree that penguins offer the least exciting gameplay. However, their cuteness factor may still lead them to victory in the vote.
Crabs would bring a special claw that allows players to place blocks further away, while armadillos would provide wolf armor to protect dogs. On the other hand, penguins would only enhance the speed of boats, which is already possible with dolphins.
Despite this, players find penguins appealing because they would add something new to a currently bland biome. Armadillos also share this advantage, while crabs would be added to a biome that already has a signature mob.
Minecraft creator Antfrost expressed a preference for “cute penguins in Minecraft” over faster boats, echoing the sentiment of many players. Penguins have been highly requested for years, making this vote a long-awaited opportunity to finally see them in the game.
One player described penguins as a “fantastic choice” for the mob vote, as they have been eagerly anticipated for a long time. This sentiment is shared by many others who are excited about the prospect of having penguins in Minecraft.
Despite offering the least in terms of functionality, penguins are gaining popularity due to their adorable nature. Players are willing to overlook their limited abilities and focus solely on their cuteness.
The Minecraft mob vote for 2023 will be open from October 13th to 15th, allowing players to cast their votes and have a say in which of the three mobs will be permanently added to the game.

|---|---|---|
| Oct. 5 | The final competitor for Minecraft’s 2023 run of the mob vote event was unveiled to be penguins on Oct. 5. And while their functionality is quite lackluster, players are planning to vote for them anyway simply because they’re cute. | |
| If penguins are chosen, they will be found waddling around the stony shores biome and the nearby oceans. And if you’re traveling by boat in the ocean, a penguin might swim up to you and help move your boat along faster. | ||
| Compared to the other two mob vote contenders, players are in agreement that the gameplay penguins bring is by far the worst. But they still think they’re so cute that there’s a good chance penguins will end up winning the vote regardless. | ||
| Crabs would bring a special claw that allows players to place blocks further away and armadillos would grant wolf armor to keep dogs safe, but all that penguins would do is help make your boat move faster. This functionality seems especially disappointing considering that dolphins already help you move faster while swimming, so you can easily hop out of a boat at any point to get a move on if you need to. | ||
| Both crabs and armadillos would bring some entirely new and useful gameplay to the sandbox game, but penguins would just extend upon a feature that already exists. | ||
| One plus for penguins is that they would be added to a biome that doesn’t have anything special going on in it, just like armadillos. Only the crab is a possible addition for a biome that already has a signature mob, so if penguins are indeed chosen, then they will at least make a currently bland biome much more sought after. | ||
| Oct. 5 | Minecraft creator Antfrost said he doesn’t care “about faster boats” and that he just wants “cute penguins in Minecraft,” which seems to be the general consensus among most players. | |
| Penguins have been a highly requested addition by most players for years, so most fans have been saying they will vote for penguins simply because they have wanted them for so long and this might be the only chance to get them. | ||
| One player said they think penguins are a “fantastic choice for the mob vote” as they have “been desperate” to see them added to Minecraft for “so long,” which is a sentiment matched by many other players who are ecstatic by the prospect of this creature. | ||
| When you compare everything each mob has to offer, penguins should be the least likely competitor to win since they have the least to offer. But since they’re adorable, players are ignoring functionality in favor of focusing just on what the mob is and not what it can actually do. | ||
| Oct. 13-15 | The 2023 installment of the Minecraft mob vote will be open from Oct. 13 to 15, so be sure to cast your vote during this time if you want a say in which of the three mobs is added to the game permanently. | |
