# More Mob Variants
\n—<\/p>\n
### \ud83d\udcd6 About
\nRecent mobs that have been added to the game all have plenty of fun variants to look at, but what about the old ones?<\/p>\n
This mod adds new variants to the older mobs that all look the same, to make them a little more fresh.<\/p>\n
Variants are added through NBT, meaning that they will be persistent across all players.<\/p>\n
All variants and features are data-driven, allowing for full customization through datapacks.<\/p>\n
