Minecraft has enjoyed a long and prosperous life, but that also means there’s a ton of unknown secrets from behind-the-scenes at Mojang Studios during Minecraft’s continued development. With their new series, The Secrets of Minecraft, Mojang is sharing some of those secrets with viewers (with their typical humorous commentary from two dysfunctional narrators). The last episode of The Secrets of Minecraft explored various secrets from previous updates, but the newest episode narrows the focus and looks solely at Part One of the massive Caves and Cliffs Update.

As expected, we get lots more cheesy jokes from the series’ two narrators, who continue their passive aggressive rivalry, but we also learn some neat facts about the Caves and Cliffs Update. The special includes concept art for the axolotl, goat, and the Warden, which looks impossibly adorable. We also learn that the recordings for the rare screaming goat mob are a combination of real goats and humans pretending to be goats, which is interesting. Finally, we get to learn some of the names that were considered for the Caves and Cliffs Update, including choices like the Caves and Peaks Update, the Miner’s Update, Update Tectonic, and more.

The video is well worth a watch for any Minecraft fan, as is our list of best Minecraft toys and gifts. Minecraft is the greatest game ever made, and it reached that point only through constant iteration and a long history of dedication from Mojang Studios. With The Secrets of Minecraft, hopefully, we’ll learn more about the journey that brought us here.
