'''Tiny Takeover''' is a [[Minecraft:game drop]] that was released on March 24, 2026<ref>{{ytl|Is5IswM87EQ|Minecraft LIVE - March 2026|Minecraft|March 21, 2026|t=312}}</ref> as [[Minecraft:Java Edition 26.1]] and [[Minecraft:Bedrock Edition 26.10]]. Its theme is "cuteness" and "emotional attachment with mobs".<ref>{{ytl|FaLDBHodmGs|THE CUTEST DROP YET!|Minecraft|January 7, 2026|t=260}} (4:20)</ref> It visually overhauls [[Minecraft:baby]] mobs and [[Minecraft:rabbit]]s, makes [[Minecraft:name tag]]s craftable, and adds the [[Minecraft:golden dandelion]], which when fed to baby animals, stops them from aging.

During development, the update was referred to as '''Drop 1 of 2026'''. The final name of the update was revealed on [[Minecraft:Minecraft.net]] and [[Minecraft:Minecraft Monthly]] on March 3, 2026.<ref name="dropname">{{mcnet|our-cutest-drop-ever-has-a-name|Our cutest drop ever has a name|March 3, 2026|[[Minecraft:Linn Viberg]]|archive-url|archive-time|url-prefix|quote=Beware of cuteness overload in the Tiny Takeover drop!}}</ref><ref>{{ytl|Qcpn0_BlK_0|THE NAME OF THE NEXT GAME DROP IS... {{!}} MINECRAFT MONTHLY|Minecraft|March 3, 2026|t=214}} (3:34)</ref>

* They now can spawn with a 5% chance when a Zombie or Zombified piglin is spawned not as a reinforcment on [[Minecraft:Normal]] or [[Minecraft:Hard]] difficulty, whereas previously leaders could spawn on [[Minecraft:Hard]] difficulty only.

=== Gameplay ===

Throughout the development of Tiny Takeover, it was described as the "cutest" game drop.<ref name="snap2">
{{Citation|url=https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/minecraft-26-1-snapshot-2|title=Minecraft 26.1 Snapshot 2|website=Minecraft|date=January 7, 2026}}</ref><ref>{{Citation|url=https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/first-features-minecraft-cutest-drop-yet|title=The first features from our cutest drop yet|website=Minecraft|date=January 7, 2026}}</ref><ref>{{Citation|url=https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/babies-gone-feral|title=Babies gone feral|website=Minecraft|date=February 3, 2026}}</ref>

=== Downloadable content ===
On March 24, a [[Minecraft:skin pack]] entitled [[Minecraft:Tiny Takeover: Mob Caretakers]] was released, consisting of three characters themed after the mobs added in the update. An add-on, [[Minecraft:Tiny Takeover: Mini Mania]], was announced the next day.<ref>{{Mcnet|the-cuteness-overload-continues|The cuteness overload continues|March 25, 2026|[[Minecraft:Cristina Anderca]]}}</ref>

=== Social Media Takeover ===
Beginning with the announcement of the title in [[Minecraft:Minecraft Monthly]], the update was marketed with the gimmick of baby or otherwise small mobs "taking over" the Minecraft franchise. Within the announcement, there is a running gag of [[Minecraft:Tiny Agnes]] and [[Minecraft:Tiny Vu]] trying to hack the show and host it instead. On the same day, [[Minecraft:Minecraft.net]] was updated with several baby mobs infesting design elements, peeking out of a link to [[Minecraft:Spring to Life - Official Minecraft Trailer]], hovering the [[Minecraft:Mounts of Mayhem]] site header, and appearing on the icons for various social media platforms.<ref name="mcnet title">{{Citation|url=https://www.minecraft.net/en-us|title=Welcome to the Minecraft Official Site|website=Minecraft|date=March 3, 2026|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20260304020901/https://www.minecraft.net/en-us}}</ref> In the article about the name, [[Minecraft:Linn Viberg]]'s [[Minecraft:Mojavatar]] became covered in chicks, and several previously released promotional images were altered to show chicks interacting with the borders.<ref name="dropname"/> 

This extended even after [[Minecraft:Minecraft LIVE – March 2026]] was announced, with both a [[Minecraft:Minecraft Live Official Trailer – March 2026|trailer]] and [[Minecraft:Why You Can't Miss Minecraft Live - March 2026!|promotional video]] featuring a takeover of chicks.<ref>{{Citation|url=https://www.minecraft.net/en-us|title=Welcome to the Minecraft Official Site|website=Minecraft|date=March 10, 2026|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20260310165339/https://www.minecraft.net/en-us|quote=Get ready for Minecraft LIVE!}}</ref> Within the show itself, the sets were even decorated to be overflowing with baby mobs, giving the appearance of a taken over space. Another [[Minecraft:Tiny Takeover (trailer)|trailer]] was also released, once again centering around babies invading ''Minecraft''. Once the update released, changelogs used images of this same scenario; one in a field full of them,<ref>{{Mcnet|minecraft-java-edition-26-1|Minecraft Java Edition 26.1|March 24, 2026|Java Team}}</ref> the others seemingly chasing [[Minecraft:Efe]].<ref>{{Mcnet|minecraft-26-10-bedrock-changelog|Minecraft 26.10 Bedrock Changelog|March 24, 2026|[[Minecraft:Jay Wells]]}}</ref>
