If you like cute things, or you likeMinecraft, or maybe you happen to be part of the population who split their attention between the two things, then you’re in luck. From January 21, Hello Kitty and her fellow Sanrio characters will have their very ownMinecraftDLC, and it’s impossibly cute.
TheHello Kitty and FriendsDLCby Razzleberries and Sanrio puts Hello Kitty into the blocky world ofMinecraft, and she’s also dragged her friends along for the ride. While playing the DLC, you may meet and interact with characters such as:
And those are just the characters included on the official banner for the DLC. There’s no telling which of the other well-known Sanrio characters will appear. There are also glimpses of Badtemaru and Hangyodon in the official trailer for the DLC, but sadly there is no sign of Gudetama yet. I live in hope.
Anyway, theHello Kitty and FriendsDLC turnsMinecraftinto a cozy “kawaii farm” simulator, and players can not only customize their farm to their heart’s content, but there’s also everything else we’ve come to expect from any farming sim. Planting and harvesting crops, taking care of animals, and quests from the cutesy villagers.
Seasons are set to change in the DLC, with new crops and festivals being a core part of each season. How you take care of your animals or tend your crops will depend on the weather, with heatwaves, frosts, and even typhoons to contend with. You’ll need to gather resources to upgrade and prepare for the coming seasons.
So essentially, it’s the same as every other farming sim. But, it’sHello Kittyand friends, which instantly gives it a certain edge.
You can even dress up as Hello Kitty with her iconic red and blue outfit, which comes complete with the instantly recognizable red bow. The outfit is free for anyone who downloads the DLC before February 20, so make sure to make the most of this opportunity to get kawaii,
I have to admit, this cozy farm simMinecraftDLC comes at a weird time becauseHello Kitty Island Adventureis coming to both Steam and Nintendo Switch in just over a week from the time of the DLC’s release, but what’s to say you can’t play both and get double the cozy vibes?
TheHello Kitty and FriendsDLC is available to purchase now from theMarketplace, costing 1510 Minecoins, so you’ll need to buy 1,600 Minecoins ($9.99) if you want to get the DLC. On the plus side, you’ll have some left over for any other goodies you want to buy, and less than $10 for what is pretty much a standalone game mode isn’t something to complain about.
