Earn the Yearn Cape (also known as “Movie Cape”) by completing five Live Event quests and collecting 60 Diamonds by April 7, 2025, at 2 p.m. PT/5 p.m. ET/9 p.m. GMT. Bedrock users will see a hub for this event in the main menu, where you can jump right into the server.

Here’s a quick overview of all Minecraft Movie Live Event quests to help you unlock the Yearn Cape:
- Defend the Village
- Ghasts Incoming
- Farm Mobs, not Crops
- Protect the Cart
- Low on Iron
- Mine Diamonds
You’ll be transported to Midport Village, which plays a significant part in the A Minecraft Movie. Notable characters from the film will help you with challenges, including the legendary Steve. The Defend the Village quest is the only active mission available, but the rest will unlock every other day. Let’s break down each quest in detail to give you a better idea of what to expect.
How to complete Defend the Village quest

- Task 1: Deliver six Wilderness Carts
- Task 2: Retrieve 100 ore in the Mines
- Task 3: Defend the Outer Walls in five waves
- Rewards:
- Boots of Swiftness
- 500 gems
- 1,000 EXP
Open your map to discover the Wilderness, Mines, and the Outer Walls. You’ll have to complete the corresponding tasks in each area, requiring you to play standard Minecraft activities like mining and mob fights. Once you’ve conquered them all, you’ll earn the Boots of Swiftness via the Dressing Room.
How to complete Ghasts Incoming quest

- Task: Kill 20 Ghasts at the Outer Walls
- Rewards:
- Battle Cry emote
- 500 gems
- 1,000 EXP
Transport to the Outer Walls to go against the deadly Ghasts. Approach the gate and whip out your bow and arrow to kill anything that comes out of the portals. You’ll likely encounter Piglins initially, but the Ghasts should eventually appear. Shoot them with enough arrows until you have gotten rid of 20 Ghasts.
How to complete Farm Mobs, not Crops quest

- Task: Kill 200 enemies
- Rewards:
- Mushroom Hat
- 500 gems
- 1,000 EXP
The Farm Mobs, not Crops quest, works with any location with enemies inside. Use your bow and arrow or sword to eliminate 200 mobs. It’ll undoubtedly take some time, but it’ll all be worth it once you get the Yearn Cape and the Mushroom Hat from the Dressing Room.
How to complete Protect the Cart quest

- Task: Deliver Carts with 40 percent health in the Wilderness
- Rewards:
- Kadoosh! Emote
- 500 gems
- 1,000 EXP
Enter the Wilderness to locate the Payload Cart. Numerous enemies will try to attack it, and you’ll have to eliminate them with your sword or bow and arrow. Fortunately, other players will help you out here, where you can cover all sides of the Payload. Keep the Cart at 40 percent health, or you’ll lose out on progress for this objective.
How to complete Low on Iron quest

- Task: Clear five waves with at least two Iron Golems alive in the Outer Walls
- Rewards:
- Jet Pack
- 500 gems
- 1,000 EXP
While you’re defending the Outer Walls, you’ll see a few Iron Golems on the ground. The Piglins will try to take them down, and it’s best to use your bow and arrow to clear hordes of them (swords won’t do much in this minigame). You only need two Iron Golems alive, so don’t worry too much if enemies kill off one or more.

- Rewards:
- Yearn Cape
- 500 gems
