- Mojang announces has a brand new feature that allows you to ride the cute little Ghasts along with your friends.
- This feature is going to be dropped in the second drop of the year 2025.
- Finally, the best thing about this system is that you can ride a Ghast with your three other friends.
The first Minecraft Live of 2025 is out now, and Mojang has made groundbreaking news. For the first time, we have brand new flying mobs that you can ride in the game. The new feature makes use of the classic Ghasts from the Nether dimension, bringing them to the Overworld. These three new and unique types of Dried Ghasts, Ghastlings, and Happy Ghasts, are there to help make your Minecraft traversal a bit easier.
It all begins with a Dried Ghast . Shaped like a grumpy little blob, these new Minecraft Mobs lie behind the bone structures in the Soul Sand Valleys of the Nether Dimension. While these small creatures might seem difficult to please, all you need to do is take them home. Once you do, place these little blobs somewhere and water them. Now, all we need to do is wait.

Once it gets enough water and patience, it turns into a Ghastling . These adorable little teenage blobs get big enough and start floating around. And while you would think they need grass, you actually feed them snowballs! And that’s when happiness transforms into euphoria.

These precious Ghastlings now become the Happy Ghasts . Besides being humongous and, well, floating, these mobs can be ridden! That’s right, all you need to do is attach a harness to it and get on it! Once you get on it, you’ll see the Happy Ghast put on their trusty goggles, signifying they’re ready to take flight.
Now you’re free to fly around all Minecraft Biomes and explore away. And how do you know your Happy Ghast is free? Their goggles will be up, of course. With the Happy Ghasts, you can roam around the whole world freely as if you are playing the game in Creative mode, even when you have selected Survival during world creation.

- The next Minecraft drop is called Sping to Life and comes with a lot of new features.
- The upcoming update releases on March 26, 2025.
The time we were all waiting for is finally here. At the Minecraft Live 2025, Mojang has officially unveiled the name of the next Minecraft Drop. The next Minecraft Drop is called ‘Spring to Life.’ Packing a lot of upcoming features, the update is going to be expansive and amazing.
Spring to Life Releases in March 2025
Minecraft’s next Spring to Life update will be released on March 25, 2025 . As we all know, Mojang has changed its approach to dropping new updates over the years. For the past year, we have been receiving small but frequent major drops that bring a plethora of new changes into the game. However, one disappointing news we received was the abolition of the Mob Votes.
The updates were categorized into Snapshots, Previews or Pre-Releases (as per Java or Bedrock edition), Release Candidates, and the major game drop.
In the first Minecraft Live event of 2025, we got a groundbreaking announcement where Mojang will be introducing new Vibrant Visuals on the Bedrock version. Moreover, the new variants of Ghasts will be arriving in the second game drop of 2025. With that said, here are all the new features you can expect in the next major drop, as we have seen in all the previous snapshots:
New Mob Variants
The next major drop of Minecraft Spring to Life will include all new variants of Chickens , Cows , and Pigs and new wool color rules for Sheep. The original ones will be renamed Temperate ones, while the other two are categorized as Warm and Cold variants found in their respective climatic zones.
Explore the Savanah and Jungles biomes to find the Warmer mobs, whereas move to the Taiga forests or Windswept areas to find the colder ones.
New Flowers
From the past Snapshots, we saw a couple of new additions to the flora features of the game. The Wildflowers and the Cactus flowers are the new ones in the next game drop. While the Wildflowers appear similar to the Cherry petals and spawn on the surface, the Cactus flowers are native to only Desert biomes and lay atop the Cactus plants.
Another flora addition is the brand new Firefly bushes , which emit light particles during the night. You will find these bushes on the banks of rivers and mostly in swamps.
Ambient Features
Finally, the game has a few ambient features that help make the surroundings feel more lively. As you walk around the Desert biomes, you will hear ambient Desert noises like the flowing of dry winds and the whistling of sand dunes.
Next, we have the animation of falling leaves that you will notice under the trees. Although the textures for the leaves of every tree might look the same, the different colors are key to noticing their differences. Lastly, there are leaf litter that you are going to find under the trees of forests and dark forests.
