Minecraft reveals The Vote Update for April Fool's Day (original) (raw)

On almost every single April Fool's Day, Mojang creates a fun and bizarre version of Minecraft for players to download. This particular version of the game usually does not have any major features that will be coming in the future. Rather, it contains several new ones simply for fun and pranks. The developer recently posted a YouTube video and an article showcasing The Vote Update snapshot.

In this April Fool's Day snapshot, players will be able to choose from a set of bizarre options and have them implemented in the game.
