During this year's Minecraft Live broadcast, Mojang provided an update on the development of its upcoming action-strategy title, Minecraft Legends.
Instead of just being a 2023 release, the Microsoft-owned Swedish developer has now confirmed it'll be arriving on multiple platforms including Xbox Series X|S and Xbox Game Pass at some point in "Spring 2023".
Alongside this announcement was a look at the game's opening cinematic, here's an official description to go with it:
"Begin your journey into the story of Minecraft Legends! Watch the legend start to unfold in a clip from the game’s opening cinematic as the piglins begin their rampage across the Overworld. From the very first little invader to the reveal of the mighty piglin hordes, it’s clear that the Overworld needs a hero..."
Will you be checking this game out when it arrives on Xbox next year? Comment down below.

@Kaloudz In the trailer it says action strategy whatever that's supposed to mean
@Kaloudz I believe you control 1 main character and rally others around you. Probably similar to Dynasty Warriors or Pikmin. From what I've seen anyway.
I play Minecraft at least a couple times a week. While I think it's good that they build on the IP nothing they are doing is really that exciting to me.
Even with just Minecraft nothing looks like it will add much to the game beyond 5 minutes of ohh new shiny.
The only thing I am interested in hearing about is ray tracing for console but they don't seem to want to talk about that.
Don't know if this will be my cup of tea...but my missus might be interested
I've still got no idea what this game is. What's the point of making a pretty trailer, if it doesn't even tell you anything about the game
I’m confused as to why this is news. Sorry if I frustrate anyone, but aren’t all Microsoft studio games supposed to come to GamePass day one? So why would it be news that this is?
Anyway, I’ll likely give it a whirl with my daughter, but she’s not much into Minecraft anymore. So it’ll likely not last long with the little buggers patience.
@TheElectroFunky It’s news because it’s a newly announced game. It coming to GamePass is just part of that announcement. Nintendo Life also had a story about the game being announced. Should Pure Xbox have ignored it?
@awp69 No need for the sarcasm mate, just didn’t understand why it was news that it was coming to GamePass. That’s a given. And let’s not get into what PureXbox could have ignored, they could report nothing and still have roughly the same amount of readers.
@awp69 And it was announced months ago by the way. Check out YouTube for a June 2022 announcement trailer.
If it's anything like pikmin or overlord I'm really going to like this game. Unfortunately it seems to be flying under the radar like many other xbox first party games. They just don't do great marketing anymore for games, just game pass as a whole.
Wtf did I just see lol. That has to be one of the worst, confusing, adverts ever.
And this is coming from a guy playing Minecraft Dungeons with his gf!
@Kaloudz That’s a good point, we shall have to keep our eyes peeled! Haha. I mean you’re right, it does seem like it’s always catching up here. Yet when you go Push it’s the case you can barely breathe for people and their opinions haha.
Legends has to be one of the most over used word in game titles, So next we will probably get Minecraft Origins.
