Mojang and 4J Studios are preparing another update for the console versions of Minecraft. In December, the game will be adding “new mobs, blocks, items, status effects and all manner of other tweaks.”
Going into specifics, Elytra – an item that lets players glide – is on the way. End Cities will also be added along with Dragon’s Breath to create Lingering Potions. Mojang is also teasing “quite a few other stocking-fillers”.
Here’s the full rundown from the Mojang blog:
We’ve prepared a rather spectacular seasonal gift for Console Edition. As is traditional, you’ll have to wait until late December to open up the full package, but we’re happy to give you a teeny preview today – the digital equivalent of letting you sneak downstairs and give your gift-wrapped goodies a little inquisitive shake.
That’s if you can even lift the box – this is the biggest update we’ve put out this year! There are new mobs, blocks, items, status effects and all manner of other tweaks. Here are a few of the things you might hear rattling round inside:
Darksiders Warmastered Edition is beginning to release today, though the Wii U version will be launching a bit farther into the future. We nonetheless have the launch trailer below.

You may recall that Nintendo issued a preview download for Miitopia in Japan. Next Wednesday, it will be updated.
Nintendo is packing in a new adventure movie, costume change feature, and “Everyone’s Mii” functionality. Additionally, it’s mentioned that Miitopia’s built-in Mii studio is capable of using 32 colors, which was limited to eight in the normal Mii Studio.
“Everyone’s Mii” is a feature that lets players use popular Miis created by others. When starting the game, a questionnaire appears to determine popularity.
Also worth mentioning: Miitopia’s website has been updated with the confirmation of new jobs. These include: Cat, Devil, Scientist, Tank, Princess, and Flower. View some footage below.
Nintendo has brought out a new wave of Animal Crossing amiibo crossover cards featuring characters from Sanrio. View an unboxing video below.
Update: Some additional information from Famitsu. Sun and Moon’s first week sales are second behind X/Y’s 2.096 million. 3DS hardware sold 114,000 units, almost four times as much compared to the previous week’s amount of 30,000.
Original: Pokemon Sun and Moon have already sold over 1,900,000 units in Japan alone, according to Serebii. It’s an impressive amount for three days of sales, and there will be more sales data later in the week.
Serebii Note: Pokémon Sun and Moon sold over 1.9 million units in the first 3 days of sale in Japan https://t.co/oV6DIIA7Ub
