History of the Purple Heart cape
The Purple Heart cape was the Twitch reward of Minecraft's 15th anniversary. Mojang announced it on May 15, 2024, in its anniversary kickoff post: watch 15 minutes of any Minecraft stream on Twitch before May 31 and get a cape code.
The code went into minecraft.net/redeem. At launch the cape only worked on Bedrock, and Mojang's stream rewards post promised Java support by July 8. It arrived on Java a week early, on July 1, 2024, according to minecraft.wiki.
The heart and colours point straight at Twitch. Its TikTok counterpart from the same celebration is the Follower's cape.
Design
A purple heart with streaks on a white background, with purple corners at the bottom and a purple top edge, in Twitch's colours.

Can you still get the Purple Heart cape?
No new codes can be earned, since the Twitch window closed on May 31, 2024. minecraft.wiki reports that codes earned during the promotion have kept working past the stated deadline, so an unused code may still redeem.
