Who is Herobrine
Yes they tell a lot of stories about Herobrine, but only one is the real one: it doesn’t exist in Minecraft. It is an urban legend that was born many years ago during streaming about this video game, in which a strange figure with white eyes and human features appeared, staring at the player.
It sounds like a horror story, but it is the fruit of a joke made by a streamer, who did not imagine it would spread to the point of being remembered to this day. This story also came to the attention of the developers, who rode the wave of its popularity to create even more mystery about its actual existence: in the notes on the updates, references were inserted, as a joke, concerning the removal of this creature from the game.
The Minecraft community has been very involved with this story and many stories have been born about Herobrine, such as the one that identifies him as a ghost that haunts players, with the intent to rob and kill them.
It is also said that Herobrine ambushes players, creating dungeons to lure them. It is said, in fact, that walking through the long and narrow tunnels of the underground dungeons, there is the risk of running into the mysterious creature, which chases the player’s avatar, to attack him.
Fortunately, to date, there is no interest from developers in implementing Herobrine officially within Minecraft and, almost certainly, never will, considering that this video game has a very young audience. In the meantime, however, it is possible to summon it within the game using special mods that recreate Herobrine with its typical physical and behavioral characteristics. To find out more, read on.
How to summon Herobrine
If your intent is to summon Herobrine, you should know that you will need to use mods to do this. In the next few paragraphs, I will explain how to install the components necessary to achieve your goal.
Install Minecraft Forge
The first step to take to install a mod in Minecraft is to enable the Minecraft Forge add-on: this tool is essential for managing mods and without it, it is not possible to install them in the game
First of all, go to this website and use the sidebar on the left to choose the version of Minecraft Forge to download. I warn you that for everything to work properly, the Minecraft client version, the Minecraft Forge version and the mod version must be the same.
Once this is done, press the Installer button to download the Minecraft Forge .jar file. When the download is complete, double-click on the file obtained, in order to start it with Java: the latter component is already present on your PC, because it is installed automatically during the installation of Minecraft. If you have any doubts, you can still download Java by following the advice I gave you in this guide.
If the .jar file does not open with Java, right-click on it and select, from the context menu, the entries Open with> Java Platform SE binary. In the screen that is shown to you, then press the OK button to start the installation of Minecraft Forge.
Download the mod
Now that you have successfully installed Minecraft Forge, you need to proceed with the download of the mod that enables Herobrine in Minecraft. Among the many mods available and compatible with the most recent versions of the game, I recommend the one called Herobrine and Steve.
Herobrine and Steve allows you to summon Herobrine and the famous Steve, the main character of Minecraft on which the appearance of the players’ avatar is based. If you are interested in its download, reach this link, which leads to the Minecraft section on CurseForge.com.
After reaching the web page, press the Download button, at the top right, to download the .jar file of the mod. Once this is done, open Windows File Explorer and navigate to C: \ Users [User] \ AppData \ Roaming.Minecraft. Now, place the file you just downloaded in the mods folder: if you don’t find this folder, you can create it manually, following the advice I gave you in this guide.
Well, we’re almost there: what you need to do now is start the Minecraft launcher and press the ▲ icon, located next to the Play button. In the panel that you see, then select the Forge profile and click on the Play button, to start Minecraft with mod support.
On the main Minecraft screen, then create a new game session by clicking on Single player> Create a new world. Then select Creative mode and press the More world options button. In this new section, activate the cheats, making sure that the word Yes appears, next to the item Commands: This will help you to switch from Creative to Survival mode. Finally, press on the Done button and then on the one called Create a new world.
Summon Herobrine
In Minecraft Creative mode, you can summon Herobrine using the special item introduced by the Herobrine and Steve mod you just installed. To begin, open the inventory, by pressing the E key on the keyboard, and select the Search tab (the one with a compass icon ).
Now, use the text box next to the word Search, to type the terms herobrine egg: by doing so, you will be shown an object with an egg icon with red spots. To proceed, all you have to do is move the object to the quick bar and that’s it.
At this point, select the quick slot where you have placed the egg and click with the right mouse button anywhere on the ground, in order to instantly summon Herobrine. I warn you that in Creative mode the creature will not attack you. To switch to Survival mode, press the T key on your keyboard and type the text string / gamemode survival, followed by pressing the Enter key. Have a good fight!
