Caves & Cliffs: Part I - Trailer

Caves & Cliffs: Part I introduces our new favorite mobs to Minecraft.
Get to know the axolotl, but don’t let the adorableness of this bucket-happy mob fool you. It is very much a predator. The goats are also incredibly cute, but also incredibly fond of ramming, so keep your distance or prepare yourself for a journey through the air.

We loved working on this trailer together with Mojang, with a mix of creative ideas from their end and a lot of creative freedom we where able to create this fast paced trailer in record time.
