Minecraft's success has led to multiple spin-offs, from Telltale's Minecraft: Story Mode – a narrative adventure starring Patton Oswalt – to Minecraft Dungeons, a Diablo-like dungeon crawler. And now, Mojang Studios has announced its next chapter for the Minecraft franchise, titled Minecraft Legends. It is yet another spin-off title based on the world of Minecraft, but in a different genre altogether.
The game was revealed during the Xbox and Bethesda Games Showcase and is going to come out in 2023. In this article, Gurugamer is going to showcase everything you need to know about Minecraft Legends.
About Minecraft Legends
Overall, this brand new spin-off game will be more like StarCraft than the usual RPG sandbox experience of Minecraft. It is a strategy game set in the Minecraft world, with Minecraft mobs and characters. The game is developed in partnership with Blackbird Interactive, maker of the RTS series Homeworld.
This is not their first collaboration, as this developer has previously worked with Mojang Studios on the now-defunct Minecraft Earth.
