As far as ambitious media crossovers go, however, few are on the same level as those done with Star Wars . The franchise that needs no introduction continues to thrive, and high-demand content like The Mandalorian - now enjoying a season 2 filled with guest appearances, such as WWE superstar Sasha Banks, and big reveals - proves that there is a near-endless supply of creative content still available to be mined and iterated upon. In the past, Minecraft and Star Wars content has come from dedicated fans, who frequently flex their creative muscles by recreating detailed depictions of their favorite propert
Fans are already discussing what they'll use the new content for, and in a game like Minecraft , the possibilities with this many Star Wars references are vast. It's also worth noting that this announcement comes as a complete surprise to fans, who weren't expecting any Minecraft and Star Wars mash-ups in the near future outside of that content's obvious inclusion on many players' wishlists for future updates. While the character skins certainly port in interesting ways in some cases - Baby Yoda is adorable , while actual Yoda's expressionless face is frightening - they open up a lot of options for the already robust amount of skins available in Minecra
Minecraft and Star Wars mash-up content will likely be big news for players, but it's also incredible it was somehow kept a secret. These are two major properties with a lot of moving parts internally for each - that a crossover like this remained hidden until its debut trailer, and that it launched simultaneously, is an impressive feat. Now all that's left is to wait and see what kind of amazing Minecraft _ and

2020 has been a difficult year for everyone, but it remains a solid year for Minecraft . The beloved block-builder has been thriving with new content, both community-made and in the form of official updates from Mojang. And even after eleven years, fans are still responding positively to the game. During 2020, which has proven to be
YouTube Gaming's biggest year, Minecraft has attracted 200 billion views on the video platform from let's plays, streams, and other content. The social media-warping presence of Steve in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate surely didn't hurt the game's reputation eit
Now, fans have an official Minecraft and Star Wars mash-up, as announced in a trailer from Nintendo on
YouTube earlier today. The star of the trailer is clearly The Mandalorian 's Baby Yoda , but the content will also feature a slew of other classic Star Wars content, like locations from the Original Trilogy (Hoth, Cloud City, and Mos Eisley Cantina) and skins of iconic characters (Leia, Han Solo, Luke, Chewbacca, Darth Vader, and more). Minecraft 's all-new

On Twitter and elsewhere, Dream still maintains that he did not cheat and claims that the analysis video and paper is biased. He pointed out incorrect information from the analysis video, which the Minecraft Speedrunning Team has since corrected with correct information in the description, but the verdict still stands. Dream also stated that this only affected his 16th place speedrun for Minecraft 1.16 and did not affect his 5th place run for Minecraft 1
The most interesting part of the Minecraft Speedrun Team's analysis video is its speculation about why Dream would fake a speedrun. Dream has held and lost many world records in his speedrunning career but has openly expressed his dislike of Minecraft 1.16 due to the RNG involved in runs. However, the question could also be asked as to why the official team would go after Dream 's 16th place run from two months ago, but it's entirely possible that its investigation took time to put together after being tipped
For a family-friendly title, Minecraft can't seem to stay away from controversial situations of a sexual nature. Less than a month ago, Minecraft Steve made his debut as a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate , but his first few hours on the battlefield were tarnished due to players using Steve to build hilariously inappropriate structures . That's not even to mention one of Steve's victory screens, where he is wielding a steak in a rather precarious manner. Thankfully, switchmixzone.Com Nintendo had enough sense to remove the meat from Steve's hand in the game's most recent upd
However, Minecraft's latest inappropriate oopsie is not the result of developer oversight, but instead caused by Twitch's midroll ad system . MinecraftJavaSpeedrunning is currently holding a Minecraft speedrunning tournament where runners compete against one another to see who can beat the Ender Dragon the fastest. During a round between runners Kiryokoe and Korbanoes, an add for baby blockers blocked the screen of Kiryukoe's stream. This was due to the stream broadcasting both competitors' streams simultaneously via a display capture source in OBS. The viewers were forced to watch the ad as if it were part of the event, but the commentators' reactions made it clear it was not. The below clip from the stream was shared on Reddit's r/LivestreamFails by user Guydangerus
