Fans of the beloved block-building game, Minecraft, are buzzing with speculation regarding the next Minecraft Live showcase, following what some believe to be a leak from developer Mojang. In March, Mojang announced a shift in its event schedule, committing to host two annual live showcases moving forward. This change was highlighted by the recent March edition, which took place outside the traditional Fall timeframe, coinciding with the upcoming release of The Minecraft Movie and the unveiling of the Vibrant Visuals update.
Speculations and Insights
Recently, Mojang shared its weekly Minecraft snapshot, hinting at an upcoming game drop that they expressed excitement about. However, the announcement left fans wondering about the timeline, as the term “soon” remained ambiguous. A keen-eyed Twitter user, Nintenleaks, discovered a curious detail on the Spanish Minecraft Live webpage. According to a machine translation, the FAQ section stated that “Minecraft Live will be held virtually on September 22, 2025, starting at 1:00 PM ET.” This revelation suggested that the next bi-annual stream could be just over a month away.
However, skepticism arose when a user on the r/GamingLeaksAndRumours subreddit pointed out that the date had been archived on the website prior to the March event, indicating it might have been a simple typographical error. Adding to the uncertainty is the fact that September 22 falls on a Monday, while previous Minecraft Live events have consistently taken place on Saturdays—except for the 2023 showcase, which was held on a Sunday. Furthermore, the webpage has since been updated to reflect the March date, casting further doubt on the September claim.
Despite the confusion surrounding the date, it is clear that a second Minecraft Live event is on the horizon, likely scheduled for its customary September or October slot. The anticipation surrounding this event is palpable, as fans eagerly speculate on what new features or updates might be unveiled. Possibilities range from minor updates introducing new mobs to the long-awaited End update, or even the introduction of a second type of bee—an addition that would certainly delight the community.
In related news, the founder of the Hypixel Minecraft server recently revealed that an impressive .1 billion worth of Minecraft accounts have engaged with their platform over the past 13 years, highlighting the server’s ongoing growth and popularity within the Minecraft community.
