The new game in the popular “Minecraft” franchise differs from the construction game. It focuses on strategy, in which the player must build defenses and control forces to fight opponents. The appearance is the same, they are all made in blocks. No further details were revealed, only that the title arrives in 2023 for Xbox, PC, Nintendo Switch, and Playstation.

According to Microsoft, “In ‘Minecraft Legends’, players will discover a serene, familiar and mysterious place, filled with lush biomes and rich resources. However, this beautiful landscape is about to undergo a terrible change: the invasion of pigs threatens corruption in the greater world. It is up to players to make friends who are not Expected to form valuable alliances and lead strategic battles against the fierce invaders of Hell.”
