The Cobalt Cape is a cape that was given out to players who won competitions for the game Cobalt, which was developed in collaboration with Mojang.
This cape was given to participants/winners of the Cobalt Workshop Challenge level-making competitions[1][2][3][4] and the Cobalt League tournaments in 2016.[5]

Radwasp enemies from Cobalt as they appear in-game in the Xbox One version. These Radwasps are in the Wasp Nest in "Rocket City", the 5th chapter of Cobalt's campaign.

The Radwasp enemy from Cobalt - the inspiration for the Elytra texture - as it appears in the current Steam version of the game. The color of the wings is an approximation.
- The design of the cape's elytra texture is based on a wasp enemy from Cobalt.[8]
- In the Steam version of Cobalt, Radwasps can no longer spawn in the color featured for the Cobalt Cape's Elytra. It's unclear if this is a bug or intended behavior as neither Oxeye Game Studio or Mojang publicly track issues for Cobalt.
- β Little information about these tournaments is available publicly. The link from the tweet is now broken, but it was archived, showing that it redirected to a different website. This website still works, but many of the tournaments, all of which are listed as taking place in early 2016, are still marked as incomplete, suggesting that this website was abandoned before the tournament series finished. It is possible that the remaining tournaments were held on a more private platform.
