The largest Minecraft event of the year is mere hours away, and the broadcast is bound to be brimming with big, bold, beautiful bulletins detailing what's to come to the Minecraft universe in the future. Of course, the question in the minds of many would-be viewers is, "What can we expect from Minecraft Live 2022?" The night before the main event, I want to take a moment and share what we believe will appear during tomorrow's Minecraft Live show.
- We'll almost certainly see the first details of the next major Minecraft content update, which will fall under the 1.20 version number. It's not clear what the theme, or even the name, of the upcoming update, will be, but we can be sure the world's largest creative-survival game is destined to gain new mobs, blocks, and features when it arrives.
- We'll also probably catch another look at Minecraft Dungeons Season 3, which already got a sneak peek ahead of the show. We know the general outline of what's to come in the massive release for Mojang Studios and Double Eleven's action-RPG extravaganza, and Minecraft Live 2022 is bound to give us more details about the animal-themed Seasonal Adventure, new content and multiplayer for The Tower, and the free Tree Top Tangle level.
- Minecraft Legends is the next addition to the expanding Minecraft gaming universe, and its unique blend of action and strategy gameplay is an enticing combination. During Minecraft Live 2022, I expect we'll see fresh gameplay for the upcoming title, and possibly some more information regarding the story or release date. There's almost no chance Minecraft Legends doesn't make an appearance at the show, but we'll have to wait to see exactly what's in store.
- Finally, the Minecraft Mob Vote 2022, which has already opened its doors for voting, will come to a close when Mojang Studios announces the winner during Minecraft Live 2022. Will the Sniffer, Tuff Golem, or Rascal join the ranks of Minecraft's roster of mobs? We won't have to wait long to find out — make sure to get your votes in before the show begins!
Between the next Minecraft update and more information regarding Minecraft Legends, this year's Minecraft Live stream is shaping up to be an exciting affair. I'm personally ecstatic to learn which mob will win the mob vote, as well. You can read more about which mob I, and other members of the Windows Central team, are voting for down below (spoiler alert: I'm rooting for the Sniffer).
