It’s a bit early, but Mojang is announcing some new updates coming to Minecraft Pocket Edition soon. If you play the game on your Android mobile device, you will have been aware of the last big update which brought the Realms feature and cross-platform gameplay. It seems Mojang is not done updating, and we have a “Boss update” coming up.

The Boss Update for Minecraft Pocket Edition (and Windows 10) will bring new mobs, including the Elder Guardian that will be found in the Ocean Monuments, and the Wither appears in a new and improved fighting form. But it seems this is not the biggest element in the update.

This new update will be bringing in the “Add-Ons” feature, which allows for a totally different level of customization within the game. Add-Ons will let you remix mobs, switch out the models, textures and behaviors. That will result in pretty crazy stuff like rideable chickens and ultra-explosive pigs. These components can be tweaked and swapped by editing text files. Check out the video below.

Mojang has put together a new website to explain Add-Ons, and you might want to check it out. The update will be coming on October 18, so you will have a few weeks to get ready for it.
