A new strategy-RPG hybrid of sorts, Minecraft Legends tasks players with exploring an open overworld, amassing mobs of followers, and engaging in real-time strategic battles. While Minecraft creators Mojang are involved in the project, it seems most of the heavy lifting is being done by Vancouver-based developer Blackbird Entertainment (Hardspace: Shipbreaker, Homeworld 3). You can check out a trailer for Minecraft Legends, below.
Looks like an interesting twist on the Minecraft we know, although I’d like to see more of the strategic gameplay. The trailer kind of makes it look like you just crash your mob into the enemy’s mob. Need to know more? Here’s a quick official description for Minecraft Legends… Minecraft Legends is coming to PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5, and Switch in 2023. The game will have a very exciting campaign that will introduce many surprises for both new and seasoned Minecraft player alike. And for those looking to play with friends, there will be online campaign co-op and competitive multiplayer which we’re looking forward to sharing more on later this year.
