PIGLIN SLAYER
by Vivideru
Piglin Slayer is a Forge mod for 1.19.2 – 1.20.1 that adds new mobs, bosses, enchantments and structures centered on piglins.
What it does
Three piglin variants are added in red, black and white. The red ones hit the hardest only in the sense that they are the easiest to beat, while the white ones challenge players and usually arrive with special attacks that punish the player for fighting them head on. Players find the new piglin types only in the overworld, in small encampments and large structures.
The mod adds a small set of blocks, tools and one new armor, along with many enchantments and some magic rings. A craftable book made from two piglin fangs covers the main topics of the mod, so players can look up how the systems work without leaving the game.
Piglin Slayer runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge only, for 1.19.2 and 1.20.1. The latest file is 1.0.0 for 1.20.1, from 2024-04-01. The code is not open source; the mod is released under All rights reserved.

What the author says
PIGLIN SLAYER is my first project in Minecraft Modding. My objective is to add weight to Minecraft's gameplay, adding meaningful mobs and items that can integrate themselves in vanilla gameplay. The mod features only few new blocks, no new tools and one new armor. Inspired by the recent Zelda games, all new mobs come…
