Giants were a type of Hostile Mob that unsued from the video game Minecraft only accessible through commands.
History[]
Giants appeared as large verions of zombies, and were twelve blocks tall. They were first added in Minecraft Java Edition Indev 0.31 in February of 2010. They acted as typical hostile mobs, chasing and attemtping to kill the player, but their hitboxes made attacking difficult.
Originally, Giants did not use the typical "undead" format that other hostile mobs used, not burning in sunlight and able to be harmed via Potions of Harming. Though zombie AI was briefly implemented, Giants were not included with the full release. For an extended period, Giants could only be spawned via commands.
Giants' AI was removed in Java Edition Release 1.8, and if spawned, they will be stuck in place facing south.
