Your cool Star Wars get ups will put even the most inventive Minecraft mods to shame. Just click on the list below to take you to the best Minecraft skins for you.
Here are the best Minecraft skins:
chewbacca
Huggable but deadly are characteristics for which we all strive for when looking for Minecraft skins – and in real life, come to think of it. Now you can have just that by equipping your avatar with this Chewbacca skin. Grab a friend who looks a bit like Harrison Ford and explore the galaxy together.
Jabba the Hutt
Don this Minecraft Star Wars skin to resemble one of the galaxy’s most notorious and influential gangsters/gelatinous blobs. You will need to speak Huttese if you want to do this Minecraft skin justice, so here are some key phrases:
Moulee-rah – “Money!”
H’chu apenkee – “Hello!”
Wee now kong bantha poodoo – “Now you’re bantha fodder!”
darth maul
We are not quite sure how you will pull off Darth Maul’s double-bladed lightsaber look, but everyone else in the server will likely be too busy fleeing to notice you’re only wielding a bronze pickaxe.
iron man
Ol’ shellhead is an extremely popular Marvel characters, thanks in no small part to his iconic hot-rod red armour. This is a detailed replica of his classic armour, complete with triangle chest piece and palm repulsors.
Thanos
The big baddie of Marvel’s blockbuster Avengers series looks even more formidable as a Minecraft skin. Now we just need a ‘Thanos click’ mod that deletes Minecraft mobs at night.
batman
With his cute breezeblock of a head and stubby little ears, you would never believe that Batman could have such a tragic past. Help him avenge his parents by putting on this Minecraft Batman skin and constructing a better Gotham, free of dodgy little alleyways where muggers can hang out.
elsa
Do not let go of your Frozen dreams. Dress up in this Elsa skin, travel straight to the nearest snowy biome, and get building a massive ice castle fit for a Disney princess.
panda
The panda is furry, pampered, and loved by all. Grab this adorable Minecraft skin if you like the sound of that lifestyle. For extra roleplay points, spend your time in eating bamboo and tumbling off things in a way that makes the internet do a collective awwwwww.
pug
These flat-faced dogs are so bad at life they cannot even breathe properly. Don this adorable Minecraft dog skin and the likelihood that your mishaps will go viral will increase massively… probably.
Billie Eilish
Taking inspiration from the much-memed and generally awesome music video for Bad Guy, this Billie Eilish Minecraft skin is simple from a distance, but brilliantly detailed up close – take a look at the shading of her blue hair.
unicorn
We do not care what grown-ups have to say, unicorns exist, OK! This unicorn Minecraft skin might just be a blonde-haired girl wearing a unicorn onesie, but our faith in magical horned horses remains unwavering.
ash ketchum
Playing on a Pixelmon Minecraft server is just not right without wearing the correct Pokémon trainer attire, or Minecraft skins. The iconic baseball cap, waistcoat, and fingerless gloves in this Minecraft Pokemon skin will shout loud that you are a Pokemon pro; every Snorlax in the land will raise an eyelid.
Bob the Builder
This skin may be lost on some of our younger readers, but suffice it to say that this ’90s cartoon builder was pretty great at fixing things. Obviously, you’ll have to rely on your Minecraft know-how to actually fix things in this world, but at least you’ll look the part with this Bob the Builder skin.
Tracer
She’s fast, cool, and has a jarringly inauthentic London accent. This Tracer skin only covers one of those points, but with enough detail that you don’t need to bother putting on a voice or sprinting around.
glados
The demented operating system grows legs with this GlaDOS skin. We are not sure if that makes her more or less terrifying, but we love it all the same.
More Minecraft help:
tetris
The classic shape-stacking game comes alive, quite literally, in this man-shaped approximation of Tetris. One of the best puzzle games of all time deserves one of the best Minecraft skins.
guybrush threepwood
Guybrush from Monkey Island 2 is one of the best Minecraft skins when it comes to game recreations. The block-based graphics of Minecraft perfectly capture the look and feel of the classic LucasArts adventure.
solid snake
Sneak into Minecraft with this Solid Snake skin. Perfect for infiltrating your friends’ builds for a little bit of friendly sabotage.
transplant
It is not often that Minecraft is gross, but if you insist on sticking something sickly into your game, try this Transplant Minecraft skin. It is a ‘person’ made from an eyeball grafted onto a heart, which jumps around on a severed thumb. Charming.
creeper
Neat fact: apparently Creepers feel dry and crisp like autumn leaves, not slimy like many imagine. This fact will not help you act more Creeper-ish when dressed up in this 90% accurate Minecraft Creeper skin (the legs are just impossible to do).
CTHULHU
The Lovecraftian horror himself brought to life through the medium of Minecraft skins. The work on his tentacle beard is particularly impressive. You cannot deny they look horrifically slimy.
doge
Very textured. Many pixels. Such funny Minecraft skin. So Doge. Much polygons. Wow.
herobrine
The ghost of Notch’s dead brother, granted immortality in Minecraft’s code and now available as one of the top Minecraft skins. Of course, the story is nothing more than creepy-pasta, but that won’t stop you pretending it’s real, will it?
zombie taco
Finally, a skin that effectively answers one of life’s greatest questions: what would a human with taco shell skin and seasoned beef innards look like after a fatal zombie attack?
over world
The best Minecraft skins are designed to help you blend into your environment. For those days when you are working above ground, consider this Over World skin the perfect camouflage.
SPACE PALADIN
If you want a badass look that tells everyone you will not take any messing from evil aliens, then this Space Paladin suit of power armour is exactly what you need. The Dead Space-inspired light up spine is a nice touch.
BRIGHT GIRL
Finding good female skins for Minecraft is a bit of a nightmare. They all seem to have exactly the same faces and hairstyle, making individuality a challenge. Bright Girl may share the same face as her clone sisters, but that bright blue hoodie and stripy leggings will certainly make you stand out from the crowd.
santa hd
Santa is all well and good, but isn’t it time we upgraded? This new model of everyone’s favourite list-checking, toy-dispensing home invader comes in HD – that’s less festivity, more grit.
There you go, the best Minecraft skins you can slap onto your blocky self. Obviously you’re not going to beat us in a ‘who wore it better’ competition in the Star Wars category but you can give yourself an extra chance and make your game look much better with Minecraft shaders. Also, if you’re looking for more from Mojang’s masterwork in terms of gameplay, these Minecraft servers are a great place to start. That’s in from us though, we’ve got some new blocky skins to try on.
