New Year’s Sale 2025

New beginnings, new adventures, new memories!

2025 is coming to an end. It’s been a year of crafting, mining, blocks, mobs, game drops, a whole movie, chicken jockeys, and... I’m not crying, you’re crying!

*Clears throat*

Anyway, what better way to commemorate this year, than remembering that I’m still afraid of the creaking, that my iron golem has gone missing, and that I got vertigo riding my happy ghast entering next year with new vigor, adventures, and curiosity!

Minecraft at 25% off

No matter if you’ve never invested hours mining, crafting, screaming as you’ve seen fought creepers, befriended a wolf, or understood the value of a reliable pickaxe, you can now join the blocky portion of the world’s population that HAVE done all that – at up to 25% off!

Minecraft is a place where a fear of the night creativity is ever-present! It’s a place where you set the rules (save for ill-willing mobs of course), and where limitations are non-existent!

So, get your copy of Minecraft, or buy a copy for another platform, or gift one to a friend – basically there are as many reasons to buy Minecraft as there are aspiring, spelunk-loving, sword-wielding adventurers.

Starting today on some platforms and soon on others*, you can make sure that 2026 becomes more square (in a cool way), more exciting, and more fun – for less!

A Happy New Year’s sale

According to my files, this sale will have more than 100 200 300 400 (what, even more?) 500 items on sale, and I’m actually questioning if I’ll be able to pick my favorites (perhaps best to just ask a villager my editor to pick three favs).

There are mountains of items at 33% off and heaps of doorbusters at 75% off (doorbusters CAN be used to bust doors, yes, but mostly they are highly discounted items, with three new ones each day).

Here’s the villager's my editor’s favorite items found in this magical jumble of a sale:

Mowzie’s Mobs Add-On 1.1 by Honeyfrost

A towering stone armored mob with glowing red eyes charges forward inside a dim, carved‑stone chamber. Text reads “Mowzie’s Mobs Add‑On” over the scene.

One can never have too many mobs, is a saying someone surely has said multiple times across the eons of existence. And with this jampacked add-on (sorry, no jam in this pack), you’ll find 12 new, fictional, unique, powerful, and endearing endangering mobs. Mettles will be tested, and jaws dropped – that I can promise you – as you gaze upon mobs like the rocky Ferrous Wroughtnaut, chilling Frostmaw, or soaring Naga!

Eternal End 1.1 Add-On by Panascais

A glowing End portal sits beneath swirling purple light as the words “Eternal End” appear above it. A yellow “Add‑On” tag sits in the corner against a dark, starry background.

When you’ve breezily strolled through the End Dimension a few times, casually slain a few Endermen, feeling it’s rather trite, then this add-on will... rejuvenate your whole End Dimension experience! This reimagined version of the place few even dare to mention comes with six new biomes, more than 250 blocks and items, plus lots of mobs, terrains, structures, tools, and a boss fight for the ages!

AFK Farms Add-On by Logdotzip

A busy automated factory floor filled with conveyor belts, machines, and colorful resource cells sits behind a blue “AFK Farms” banner. A yellow “Add‑On” tag appears in the corner against the industrial backdrop.

Automation! Oh, I love that word, one more time: AUTOMATION! And using the AFK Farms add-on, automation has never been easier. And it works when you’re AFK (Away From Keyboard), when the game is paused, and when you’re offline. So, if you feel that farming can be somewhat tedious and time-consuming, then just automate it. With over 20 different auto farms, you can grow carrots like it was nothing or streamline shearing sheep like it’s never been streamlined before!

Freebie: The Gold Zombie Mask

A player wearing a golden zombie mask leaps forward with a spear atop mossy stone. A close‑up of the same gold‑and‑purple mask appears on a brown background beside a Minecoin icon.

As an extra cherry on top, we got a free Character Creator item for you during this sale – The Gold Zombie Mask!

During the sale, any purchase or transaction of Minecoins via Minecraft, the launcher, or Minecraft.net will grant you a freebie that ensures that you’ll instill equal fear as flashiness – the Gold Zombie Mask!

Freebie: The Looky Tool Add-On

A glowing brown book with a single eye on its cover shines at the center, surrounded by bright turquoise tools and weapons. Bold text reading “LOOKY TOOL” appears above the items against a vibrant yellow background.

Finally, a swell (yes, many of us still say “swell”), freebie for everyone out there celebrating the New Year, or perhaps that your mom forgot to close the cookie cabinet, or anything else worth celebrating.

The Looky Tool by The World Foundry is a nifty (yes, people say that, too!) add-on that will automatically equip you with the best fitting tool based on the block near you. So, if you’re near a dirt block, then the Looky Tool equips you with a hoe or shovel.

This way, your Minecraft adventure becomes easier, faster, and... (dare I say it again), automated – so get it now!

 

That’s it! Hopefully, your 2026 will start off with new adventures, quest, monsters, cuteness, horrors, stylish zombies, and that extra “zing” that makes you dream of blocky suns and crafting tables.

Remember to grab a copy of Minecraft at up to 25% off, find something new in the New Year’s Sale, and spook your friends with the stylish (AND intimidating) Gold Zombie Mask!

 

Happy New Year!
