If you mean Minecraft’s green, creeper-face 15th Anniversary cape, its original claim began on May 17, 2024. The official announcement did not give an end date, and its linked anniversary page no longer shows a cape claim control, so current eligibility for players who missed the promotion is unconfirmed. If your account already has the cape, you can equip it through different menus in Bedrock and Java.

Which Creeper Cape do you mean?

The cape most likely meant by “Creeper Cape” is Minecraft’s 15th Anniversary cape, shown with a green creeper-face design. Minecraft announced it on May 17, 2024, saying players could claim it from the anniversary page: Minecraft’s anniversary announcement.

It is not the Corrupted Creeper Cape. Minecraft’s Dungeons II promotional guidance describes that as a separate promotional reward with eligibility tied to its campaign: Minecraft Dungeons II promotional information.

Can you still get the 15th Anniversary cape?

That is unclear. Minecraft’s May 17, 2024 announcement says when claiming began but does not specify when it ended. The linked anniversary page no longer displays a cape claim control, and the official sources reviewed do not confirm that a new claim is available now. If you missed the original claim, do not assume that buying Minecraft or using an unofficial workaround will grant the cape.

How to equip the cape in Bedrock Edition

These steps are for an account that already has the cape; they do not claim or unlock it. Minecraft Help identifies Dressing Room as the place Bedrock players access character items such as capes: Minecraft Marketplace FAQ. The detailed sequence below is historical menu guidance from a May 2024 guide.

  1. Start Minecraft and open Dressing Room.
  2. Select the character you want to customize.
  3. Open Capes.
  4. Select the 15th Anniversary cape and choose Equip.

If the cape is not listed, these steps cannot make it appear; the account may not have the entitlement.

How to equip the cape in Java Edition

The May 2024 guide’s historical Java instructions use Minecraft’s skin-management page rather than the Bedrock Dressing Room:

  1. Open Minecraft’s Change Your Skin page and sign in if prompted.
  2. Scroll down to the cape options.
  3. Select the 15th Anniversary cape.

This describes where an existing cape was managed in the guide; it does not confirm that the original promotion is still open.

Why the two Creeper capes are easy to confuse

The names point to distinct rewards from different promotions. The 15th Anniversary cape is the green creeper-face cape announced in 2024. The Corrupted Creeper Cape belongs to separate Dungeons II promotional guidance, where eligibility depends on the applicable campaign. Instructions for one reward do not establish access to the other.
