Good news for Minecraft players! Two capes that were only in Bedrock Edition—the Pan Cape and the Founder’s Cape—are now popping up in Java Edition for folks who already have them in Bedrock. This was spotted by the Minecraft Wiki crew on May 8, 2025. If you’ve got the same Microsoft account for both versions, you might see these capes in Java now.

Mojang’s been working on making stuff like this work across both Bedrock and Java, so you can flex your capes no matter which version you’re playing. To check if you’ve got ‘em in Java, just restart your Minecraft launcher to refresh your account’s cosmetic stash.

Founder and Pan cape

I Logged On This Morning I Now Have These Capes In

  • Pan Cape: This cape was given out to players who purchased the Minecraft Bedrock Edition’s Pancape Character Creator item from the in-game Marketplace. It features a colorful, pancake-themed design with a playful vibe. It was a promotional or cosmetic item tied to specific Bedrock events or purchases.
  • Founder’s Cape: This cape was awarded to players who bought Minecraft Bedrock Edition during its early days or as part of a special promotion, like the Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition launch or certain Bedrock-related milestones. It’s a rare cosmetic with a sleek, exclusive look, often seen as a badge of honor for early Bedrock supporters.

Will the rest of the exclusive bedrock capes get port over too?

There’s no big official post from Mojang about this yet, so we don’t know the full deets or if more Bedrock capes are coming to Java. But it’s a dope step toward making both versions feel more connected.
