Minecraft for PC will add llamas and more in the upcoming Exploration update

Developer Mojang has announced that the upcoming 1.11 Exploration update for the PC version of Minecraft will add llamas to the sandbox game, among many more features and additions.

Mojang's blog has the details on the update, which is planned for release on Wednesday, Sept, 28:

The update introduces the Illagers - a new bunch of mobs who inhabit Woodland Mansions. They're a mean lot who attack intruders with deadly magic and summon mischievous flying imps called Vexes. True to the update's name, you can now buy maps from village Cartographers which will lead you to Ocean Monuments and Woodland Mansions. There be treasure! You will also be able to manage your bloated inventory with Shulker Boxes - special chests that retain their contents even when knocked down.And let's not forget the fluffiest of 1.11's additions: llamas! They're basically adorable mobile chests. Stick a carpet on them to make 'em snazzy. They'll even form caravans as you lead them across the land and attack hostile mobs with gobs of spit. Charming!
