Josh's Zombies

Java mod listed for Minecraft 26.x. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.

This mod adds new zombies to minecraft, currently only cave zombies. This is a vanilla friendly mod so mostly cosmetic changes or variances that dont…

Which Minecraft do you have?

Every version of the game needs its own build. Pick yours, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game. This mod is built for Fabric only.

Minecraft 26.1–26.2Newest
Minecraft 1.21.11

⬇ Download for 26.1–26.2 ⬇ Download for 1.21.11

I don't know my version or loader

Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.

No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

JOSH'S ZOMBIES

Adds vanilla friendly Cave Zombies

Cave Zombie

Adds Cave Zombies. This mod is vanilla friendly adds 9 new zombie textures and model variants that all the new zombies can spawn with. The zombies have a small chance to drop iron copper or gold nuggets when killed. The dynamite zombie can drop gunpowder or has a 50% chance to cause a nondestructive explosion when killed.

I plan to add more zombie types in the future.

Feel free to use this mod however you want.
