Skins are one of the best parts of Minecraft. They largely do not provide any advantage to players, but being able to change from the standard Steve or Alex skin is pretty great.

If players want to customize their skins in Minecraft 1.19 Java Edition, they can easily do so using a skin maker.

Minecraft Steve has been added to Super Smash Bros Ultimate, and there's now a mod that lets you make use of your Java skins.
