Well, I suppose it’s not really secret anymore, since today we learn via Mr Hogarty, who is some kind of Minecraft community sentinel these days, that the current version of Minecraft contains a new super-tough mob, the Wither. It seems that the thread-headed aberration, which is super tough and fires bolts which can destroy blocks and “wither” you, is locked up in the code pending a forthcoming version of the game. Needless to say, enterprising Minecraftians have figured out how to spawn it in the game, so you can see it below. The video also summarises a bunch of other stuff from forthcoming Minecraft features like, uh, potplants.

Minecraft’s monsters, for whatever reason, continue to freak me the hell out. Props to Mojang for coming up with these concepts that manage to be more than a little disturbing even in cute block form.

Hm, the new mob looks interesting. But I’m not sure Wither that invisibility potion is a good thing.

I like the giant creeper sculpture in the background. At least, I hope it’s a sculpture…

It might be time for a town-swallowing sand worm soon.

Now remember, walk without rhythm and we won’t attract the worm.
