Post-launch support for Minecraft Legends officially ends

Following the overwhelming success of Minecraft, we have seen the team at Mojang expand the IP outwards into other gaming genres. One such project was Minecraft Legends – a real-time strategy game featuring familiar Minecraft elements. Despite having launched less than a year ago, support for the game has now officially ended.

Making the announcement on their blog, the team at Mojang detailed this final update – Lost Legends: Snow vs Snouts. With that, the team also revealed that support for the game has officially ended, saying:

“Since launch, we've listened to community feedback and implemented a series of changes and tweaks to make the game better. With that complete, we're now going to take a step back from development.”

They continued, “While we won’t be releasing any new content (i.e. updates, Lost Legends, or Marketplace DLC) for Minecraft Legends, the fun doesn't stop here. We'll continue having a blast playing the game alongside our community because those rowdy piglins are showing no signs of slowing down.”

Though it may not have had as long of a support cycle as something like Minecraft Dungeons – which recently saw its support end after a solid 3 and a half years – not every game needs to be a live service title, and so hopefully those who enjoy playing Minecraft Legends continue to do so.

Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition announced for all systems (including Switch 2)

Just under 10 years ago, Fallout 4 officially released to the world. While the game is far from perfect, it resonated with millions thanks to its sandbox-like design and focus on exploration among other ancillary additions (such as the settlement mechanic and base building). As they have done with many of their previous games, Bethesda has now officially announced Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition – bundling the base game alongside its DLC and hundreds of user-created mods.
