MCLG-377The Latin American Spanish language is erroneously referred to as Mexican Spanish
There is a Mexican Spanish language; however, no regionalism from that country is heard or shown and the voiceovers do not have a Mexican accent. This language is incorrectly called Mexican Spanish when it should be Latin American Spanish (the neutral accent of Latin American Spanish can be heard in the game)
The same thing happened with Minecraft Dungeons and Bedrock Edition (although I'm not sure if the same translators who take care of that game also do it with these games): MCD-7323 and MCPE-164185.

There is a Mexican Spanish language; however, there are many items, blocks and texts whose translations are more appropriate for Latin American Spanish. This language is incorrectly called Mexican Spanish when it should be Latin American Spanish.
The same thing happened with Minecraft Dungeons and Minecraft Legends (although I'm not sure if the same translators who take care of that game also do it with these games): MCD-7323 and MCLG-377.
Some examples I have collected (I will add more as I find them):
