Minecraft Weeping Angels Mod Comes to Life with Creaking Mob Features

The Creaking is an exciting new mob announced by Mojang for the upcoming Minecraft update. During a recent live event, the developers detailed its distinctive characteristics. The Creaking appears to be one of the most terrifying hostile mobs the Swedish studio will introduce. Interestingly, elements of this mob draw inspiration from a popular mod within the Minecraft community.

This article explores how Mojang Studios incorporated features from the Weeping Angels mod into Minecraft with the introduction of the Creaking mob.

The Weeping Angels is a Minecraft mod inspired by the beloved British sci-fi series, Doctor Who.

In this mod, these creatures can only be detected in-game using the Timey Wimey detector. Once spotted, the angels will attack players and may also teleport them to random locations across one of the three dimensions, posing a serious risk.

An essential aspect of the Weeping Angels is their inability to move when players are watching them, a feature that closely mirrors the behavior of the new Creaking mob set to be introduced in Minecraft. Therefore, it is accurate to assert that elements of the Weeping Angels’ functionality were officially brought into the game with the Creaking mob.

Players interested in experiencing the Weeping Angels mod can download it from the CurseForge website.

Distinct Features of Creaking

As previously mentioned, the Creaking’s significant feature of remaining still when visible is reminiscent of the Weeping Angels mod. However, this new mob possesses several additional unique traits.

For instance, the Creaking cannot simply be defeated using melee or ranged attacks. Instead, its heart is not contained within its body; rather, it is a separate block concealed deep within the pale trees of the Pale Garden. To eliminate a Creaking, players must locate and destroy this heart block.

If desired, players can retrieve the creaking heart block and manually summon another Creaking mob by placing the heart block between two pale oak log blocks.
