Minecraft’s never going free-to-play because as it stands it’s ‘the best deal in the world’

Mojang introduced new sophisticated shaders for Minecraft, set to enhance the visual experience in 2025. The standard "Java and Bedrock" edition of Minecraft is priced at £20, with various deluxe editions, skins, and texture packs available. Two optional subscriptions, Marketplace Pass and Realms Plus, offer additional customization and multiplayer experiences, but the base purchase provides a complete gaming experience. Mojang emphasizes accessibility and a commitment to maintaining the game's core experience without aggressive monetization. A parent noted that Minecraft became the sole game played on their child's Switch after purchasing it for £20. Mojang's representatives confirmed that there is no pressure from Microsoft to explore new monetization strategies. Game director Agnes Larsson highlighted the cultural significance and community ethos of Minecraft. The latest update, "Spring to Life," is available for free and introduces new ambient features, mob variants, and minigames inspired by an upcoming movie adaptation.
