Today (October 1, 2025), Mojang Studios has rolled out a major update titled “The Copper Age” for the sandbox game Minecraft (available on PC / PS5 / PS4 / Xbox One / Nintendo Switch / iOS / Android).
This update introduces several new copper-themed elements, including the copper golem and the copper chest. The copper golem is a newly added mob that players can summon by placing a carved pumpkin on top of a copper block.
