    Can’t wait to see what the continued lack of innovation will bring to the game in the future.

      best we can do is release 1 new animal per year that does nothing (out of 3 options we present to you, you’ll never see the other 2 tho) and one new cosmetic block that does nothing. but maybe if you ask nicely we’ll spend all year making the sky box taller. we’re a small indie dev pls understand

      microsoft money? sorry we spent it all creating a microtransaction store for dance emotes

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    This is a pretty sizeable shift in the leadership of Mojang, but it should be noted that business will more-or-less continue as usual.

    Chiang is maintaining oversight over Mojang Studios and the ever-growing Minecraft franchise.

    Now, Microsoft has confirmed to Windows Central that Bredin is the new studio head of Mojang in Chiang’s place.

    Minecraft is preparing to celebrate its 15-year anniversary in 2024, and we’re expecting surprises in that department.

    One update we know is coming is Minecraft 1.21, which has been confirmed (along with its first official features), although it’s still a long way off from a full release.

    In other Microsoft news, our very own Jez Corden recently interviewed Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer about Xbox, Game Pass, handhelds, and much more.

      1.12 is a long way off from a full release

      Looking at the size of previous updates, there’s only ~5 more lines of code to write!
