A couple of years ago, the developers of Minecraft announced their plans to upgrade the graphics of the game through a software update. Unfortunately, last week Mojang announced that due to the technical hurdles involved, they would not be able to release the update, which we’re sure is a bit of a bummer for fans of the game.

Minecraft does not exactly sport the best graphics we’ve seen in a video game, but it works. However, back in 2017, the developers behind the game Mojang announced plans to issue an update that would essentially bump the graphics in the game. The update was scheduled for a release in the fall of 2017, but was later pushed to 2018, which it obviously missed.

Mojang, the developer of the popular Minecraft game, has confirmed that it’s going to end support for Minecraft: Stor Mode on June 25th, 2019. Those who play the title are now advised to download their episodes prior to the cutoff date or they will lose access. This game’s delisting isn’t surprising given that other games that Telltale Games had created have disappeared as well after the publisher shut down unexpectedly […]

To say that Minecraft has done well for itself would be an understatement. It’s an immensely popular title, selling a huge number of copies across the globe. Microsoft has now released the latest sales figures for the title. More than 176 million copies of Minecraft have been sold across the globe, according to Microsoft.

A little over a week ago, Microsoft released a teaser video which seemed to hint at the company’s plans at taking on augmented reality (AR) based games such as Pokemon GO. The trailer teased that the company would be launching an AR version of Minecraft, and sure enough they have.

Are you looking for a fun way to spend your weekends? If you are, then you might be interested to learn that to celebrate Minecraft turning 10 years old, Microsoft has decided that you will now be able to play the original version of Minecraft directly in your browser for free. This will only be playable in creative mode, meaning that there will be no monsters for you to fight.

Using augmented reality (AR) for gaming makes a lot of sense, although admittedly it took the success of Pokemon GO for developers to really sit up and pay attention to it. For those who are looking forward to experiencing more AR based games in the future, Microsoft could have something for you.

The live-action Minecraft movie has already suffered delays and at least there’s a new date now that fans can pencil into their calendars. Some may not be quick to take this new date at face value given the delays that have already taken place, they’d think the date could once again be pushed back. For now, though, they should expect the live-action Minecraft movie havecome out in Mach 2022.

If you have played Minecraft for a long time you might be familiar with the references to the game’s original creator Markus “Notch” Persson that were listed in the main menu of Minecraft. The game has received an update today which removes most of these references from the main menu. Some of you may not be aware that Minecraft is now owned by a big tech company that you may […]

An Xbox Game Pass subscription provides you with access to a library of more than 100 games that you can continue to play as long as you’re paying for the service.

The Super Smash Bros franchise has typically drawn from Nintendo’s own franchises and also games that are popular on its platform, but we have also seen how it has pulled in character from other games. Now according to the latest rumors from Japanese website 5Channel (via Game Rant), we could be looking at some surprising additions.

Earlier this year, it was announced that an interactive version of Minecraft would be launching on Netflix. It does seem odd that Netflix would be the platform that Minecraft would launch on, considering that they’re not known for gaming, but like we said, this is an interactive version of Netflix which we guess doubles as a story as well.

Minecraft for the Apple TV was launched a couple of years ago which essentially made the game pretty much playable across multiple platforms, including mobile, PC, consoles, tablets, and so on. Unfortunately it seems that while Minecraft as a whole is successful, the version launched on the Apple TV wasn’t.

Microsoft launched the Minecraft: Education Edition back in late 2016. The title was provided to schools on Windows 10 and macOS machines initially and is now being expanded to the tablet.
