Changes coming to how Minecraft is being developed:
- Mob votes are no more 🦀🦀🦀
- One big update per year, smaller “game drops” throughout the year
- Minecraft Live will happen twice per year
More on that and other changes can be found on official blog update https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/the-future-of-minecrafts-development
Sounds good overall, but I hope that frequently dropping small updates doesn’t discourage them from also working on bigger features. Stuff like the world generation overhaul from the Caves & Cliffs update.
I do also find it confusing that they are bringing a native PS5 version but absolutely no word on an Xbox Series version? This is a Microsoft published game, and they don’t have a version for their four year old flagship console lol.
Not that it matters to me, I’m a Java edition player now and forever, but I do still find it strange.
