Community Vote

Template:MainThe Community Vote was an annual event and community poll that took place during or just before Minecraft LIVE events.

It allowed viewers to vote for a new Minecraft:mob or Minecraft:biome to be added to the game in a future update.

Developer speakers

According to Minecraft:Ulraf, the developers that make an appearance at a given Minecraft LIVE to announce new features are the developers of said features, though occasionally this isn't the case to give different developers the opportunity to appear.<ref> https://youtu.be/2cxUNoWNy50?t=8767</ref>
