ABOUT THIS CAPE
Displayed on every player in the game from December 24–25, 2010, days after capes were introduced in Java Edition Beta 1.0. It was never added to any account — it simply appeared on everyone at once and then vanished. No player has ever owned one, which makes it unlike every other cape in this encyclopedia.
HOW TO OBTAIN
Could not be obtained. Shown automatically on all players for two days in December 2010, then removed.
TRIVIA
- ▸
Capes had only just been introduced to Minecraft in Java Edition Beta 1.0 when this appeared.
- ▸
Every player wore it simultaneously — there was no way to opt in, opt out, or keep it.
- ▸
The employee-only Classic Mojang Cape was the sole cape in existence at the time, so this was most players' first sight of a cape at all.
- ▸
Mojang never repeated the idea for any later holiday.
