Minecraft Live 2023: Vote for the crab!
What’s that waving at Tiny Vu? Oh! It must be the crab, one of the three new mobs that wants to join Minecraft! The crab makes its home in the mangrove swamp and has one enormous claw! It doesn’t just use it for waving at players (hello!) – this giant claw is actually very special. If a player manages to find one, they can use it to place blocks further away when building.
Vote for your favorite mob from October 13 at 5 pm UTC via the Minecraft: Bedrock Edition event server, the Minecraft Launcher, or on Minecraft.net! Voting is open for just over 48 hours, and closes 15 minutes after the show starts.

I’m guessing it would go in the shield slot
Ні, legend!
Ofc goofy
Woaa verified person
The legend
This comment will get so many likes
Would be nice if they could spawn in beaches, regular swamps, and oceans too
I’d enjoy that alot would bring alot of life to places like the oceans
They decided to add a new mob to a biome that was also just added in the last update instead of an older biome… Mangrove and Swamps already got Frogs.
es verdad, seria mas natural asi.
Yeah with other types from crab
@SomeBodyKares1 yeah but this is mojang trying to justify stuff they added recently so people will stop calling it underwhelming
Please let them have a jukebox interaction, it’s all that we ask for
Your voice must be heard

Who is asking for that

Crab rave!!!
I feel like it should spawn in beaches, it’d be fun to have more than just the sea turtle there, but still a unique mob, can’t wait to see what comes next
Yeah I agree
in my quick research I think its based on the fiddler crab which can be found in mangroves
Would be really cool if they had a basic version that spawned on beaches, but only the ones that spawn in the Mangrove biome actually have the claw
@BRD mangroves irl are found on coastlines, to protect the land from erosion. It would make more sense if there was mangrove beaches in minecraft, instead of them effectively being a second swamp biome.
Ywa
I thought they were going to say “Help the players climb while building” but placing blocks further sounds nice too
or using the claw as a boomerang
@Matteo Di GalloPrediction for new update: Boomerang or Spear
Well scaffolding exists already. If the claw did that then they’d become useless
@Fallen_Vague It would be nice for traveling too. I hate wasting blocks to climb when I run into hills or mountains. Just thinking about having climbing ability in the games makes me excited. Just think of the possibilities! But too bad It’s prob not going to happen.
Honestly i dont see the appeal as a builder cus im already used to the default range for building
Any ideas cus i fr have no clue how it seems useful
Even if there’s no variants like the frogs, I’m sure a lot of people would like to see them show up on beaches as well, even if they show up more often in the Mangrove Swamps.
Necesitamos un mob que sea un ave, actualmente no tenemos ningún ave en el cielo.
THIS! ^
@Marlongnicuswe do already have birds but more active birds and different types I understand
Do we even have actual beaches biome? It’s shocking how we don’t have these, it could be part of another aquatic update or something.
@JunDageki The Beach, Snowy Beach, and Stony Shore are all biomes.
The regular Beach has Turtles and Buried Treasure, while all variants can have beached Shipwrecks.
Hopefully if they win the mob vote, they will have an easter egg based on the dancing crab.
mr krabs has enterd the chat:
I want them to dance like parrots when a music disc is played
YES
u mean crab rave?
ARGARGARGARGARGARGAR MONEY MONEY MONEY
Won’t this make water bucket and haybail clutches way easier? That’d be pretty handy
I didn’t think of that, but you’re right!
Now i can finally be cool with a little extra help.
This is right, what about 6 block bedwars clutches
Crab already gains big fans!
Always waving happily and useful for builders.
Solid 8.5/10
too bad their gonna get farmed once its released
The crab is instantly more useful than all the mobs from the last vote
