History of the Yearn cape
Yearn is the event-server reward among the three A Minecraft Movie capes. It was first shown at Minecraft LIVE in March 2025, and the A Minecraft Movie Live Event opened in Bedrock Edition on March 25. Players worked through a run of challenges and saved a village to earn it.
The last challenge was officially due on April 4, the movie's release day. minecraft.wiki notes that players found it could already be completed on April 2, which is why some accounts had the cape early. The event was set to end on April 7 but ran an extra week, closing on April 14, 2025.
The name comes from Steve's trailer line about yearning for the mines. Before the reveal, a placeholder called the Idaho Cape had sat in the Marketplace files, Idaho being the codename for movie items. Its stream-earned siblings are Home and Menace.
Design
