This week, the Minecraft Legends<\/a> team released an unfortunate announcement regarding the game\u2019s future. So, today, we answer the question, \u201cIs Minecraft Legends shutting down?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Minecraft Legends is not shutting down. However, development on the project has ended. There will be no future updates, Lost Legends, or Marketplace DLC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Players interested in taking a dive into the final Lost Legends can do so in-game as of this week. Snow Vs Snouts gives a snowy send-off to the game, complete with snow launchers and an icy map. Those who log in can also claim the new \u201cBright-Eyed Hero\u201d skin from the Marketplace<\/a> for free, as thanks from the Minecraft Legends Team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Community Reactions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The community did not take the announcement well. Many were upset that development was ending so quickly, while others criticized Mojang for following a pattern of releasing games only to drop them shortly after.<\/a> There were also many calls for Mojang\u2019s focus to be turned solely on the main game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But they were not without a bit of praise either. One commenter in particular was grateful that Mojang continues to test the waters with so many varying genres rather than playing it safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
