Minecraft: Console Edition players aren’t the only ones getting a new mash-up pack this month and the next addition to Minecraft: Pocket Edition and Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition is decidedly more festive than the Fallout Mash-Up Pack announced last week.
Say hello to the Festive Mash-Up Pack!
As the name implies, the new Minecraft mash-up pack from Mojang celebrates the holiday season with new skins and textures inspired by festive celebrations from around the globe. Players can adorn themselves in Santa’s suit, or dress up like Krampus, and the new skins include plenty of other popular holiday imagery, like elves, reindeer or something called a Dishevelf. The Festive Mash-Up Pack even includes yeti and bigfoot skins. Hilariously enough, there’s enough a blue variant of Santa’s traditional red-and-white outfit called “ Cool Claus ”.
Unfortunately, unlike last week’s Ender Update, and the recent spate of holiday content we’ve seen for PC and console games, the Festive Mash-Up Pack won’t be a free download for Minecraft: Pocket Edition or Windows 10 Edition players. Those interested in the holiday content can purchase the Festive Mash-Up Pack from their preferred app store for $3.99.
For a closer look at the the Minecraft Festive Mash-Up Pack, take a few minutes to watch the new trailer from Microsoft and Mojang. Then head down to the comments section and let us know what mash-up pack you’d like to see in Minecraft: Pocket Edition and/or Windows 10 Edition next.
Minecraft is now available on PlayStation 3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS Vita, Wii U, Nintendo 3DS, PC, iOS and Android.
