Baby mobs have been around Minecraft for a while, but these creatures are getting an adorable makeover for a future update. Mojang Studios has shared a first look at its upcoming baby mob remasters, which is currently being tested. When the update is finished, the dev team promises that the wolf pups, kittens, piglets, calves, baby chickens, baby ocelots, lambs, and baby rabbits will be "even chunkier, floofier, and more charming than ever before."In the accompanying announcement video, game director Agnes Larsson explains that previous baby mobs were just scaled down versions of the adult creatures. This update is giving the baby animals their own specific designs and completely new sound recordings pulled from real animals.Larsen went on to explain a more subtle touch that gives the baby mobs' faces a more youthful appearance."Typically mobs in Minecraft have two-pixel eyes," said Larsen. "But now baby mobs have just one which creates a new vibe for them, which is just adorable."The devs also revealed that players will be able to name their baby mobs with craftable labels using paper and any metal nugget. Players can preview the changes in Java snapshot and the Bedrock beta preview now.In December, Mojang Studios released the Mounts of Mayhem update, which lets players ride animals into combat situations among other changes. Minecraft was also one of the most popular games on the App Store in 2025, according to Apple.
