Minecraft is teaming up with Adidas for the craziest FREE add-on that players are already losing it over. The Adventurers Add-On brings in utility companions that actually will find ore, auto-farm, and record your death point. Those little guys are the perfect little helpers for any Minecraft player wanting to boost their gameplay.
The announcement tweet was all about the visuals, with fancy and elaborate balls thrown in to tease the funky things these companions would be able to do. The replies, of course, oscillated between hype, confusion, and pleas for other updates. Gotta love the Minecraft community.
Some were down for the collab, with one user reminiscing of how the kickball was their “favorite childhood game,” whereas others… were definitely not pleased. One just said, “Corporate sponsorship in Minecraft? Gross 🤢🤮,” whereas another called for Minecraft to cease all brand partnerships and return to working with JINX and 4JStudios. Ouch.
Others even forgot the mention of the add-on and hopped straight on their wish update, including ray tracing for consoles, the Aether update, and even Switch 2 (which, let’s be real, aren’t even announced, officially). Another joked, “Meanwhile, I’m just here waiting for Minecraft 1.21.6 to drop,” so relatable.
The actual crazy question lingering in people’s minds: Can they do what Iron Golems cannot? Really attack Creepers? Because honestly, watching a Creeper blow up all your hard work while the Iron Golem just chills and does not would rustle some serious jimmies.
The add-on sounds like a legit game-changer though: Auto-farming, saving death points, and ore finding so you don’t have to spend hours digging? Sign all of us up. Some even think “it doesn’t fit Minecraft,” but hey, it’s free so, why not?
Now, determine whether ball kick is just an emote or an actual weapon in the game is another question. We haven’t heard anything officially about that, but fingers crossed for the latter. The thought of kicking a creeper out of existence with a soccer ball is just too funny. Maybe chaos is what we actually need.
Depending on who you ask, you either love this or you hate it. What is certain, however, is that Minecraft players do always have opinions, and this is certainly no exception. Go ahead and grab a free copy of The Adventurers Add-On and decide if these sidekicks are an ultimate must-have for you.
And for the record—no, this ain’t a football update. Sorry KillerB.
