Free Aurora Cape in Minecraft: Watch, Redeem and Wear It Before October 14

Free capes are rare in Minecraft, so when Mojang gives one away, it’s worth acting fast. The Aurora Cape is a bright, pastel cape for both Java and Bedrock Edition, and you can earn it just by watching streams. The catch is that the window is short.

Minecraft: Aurora Cape

Why Is Mojang Giving It Away?

This is a promotion tied to the launch of Minecraft Dungeons II. Instead of a store purchase, the cape is a reward for tuning in to the game’s launch streams. It’s a smart bit of marketing, and you get a permanent cosmetic out of it.

Method 1: Earn It on Twitch (15 Minutes)

1. Sign in to your Twitch account.
2. Open the campaign and click the Minecraft link in its description to see qualifying streams.
3. Watch any Partner or Affiliate stream in the Minecraft Dungeons II category for 15 minutes.
4. Return to the Drops and Rewards section, scroll to Rewards and click Redeem under the Aurora Cape.
5. Copy the code you receive.

Method 2: Earn It on TikTok (3 Minutes)

1. Sign in to TikTok.
2. Find a Minecraft Dungeons II livestream with Game Rewards enabled.
3. Watch for just 3 minutes.
4. Look for the notification carrying your reward code, then copy it.

TikTok is the faster route if you’re short on time.

Claiming Your Cape

Once you have your code, head to minecraft.net/redeem and enter it. The cape is added permanently to your account, and you can equip or swap it whenever you like. Don’t wait too long after earning it, because the Minecraft Wiki notes codes must be claimed by October 31, 2026.

Good to Know

• Watch time counts. Make sure the stream is in the Minecraft Dungeons II category, or it may not qualify.
• Regional limits apply. In places where Twitch or TikTok rewards aren’t available, the task can’t be completed normally. Players there may need a code from another player, but check the platforms’ rules first.
• The design has a backstory. The cape began as a spare Dungeons II concept resembling The Sift, before Mojang’s artists adapted it.
