1047 Games unveiled a battle royale mode for Splitgate 2 at the Summer Game Fest, announced by CEO Ian Proulx. Proulx wore a hat with the phrase "MAKE FPS GREAT AGAIN," which drew mixed reactions from viewers. He later clarified the hat's message on social media, emphasizing the company's commitment to improving the multiplayer FPS experience. The launch included a shop refresh with a new skin bundle, the most expensive item in the game, prompting discussions about in-game purchase value. The new mode led to a surge in players and technical issues, including problems with the experience points (XP) system, which the company is working to resolve.
The Minecraft Movie is set to stream on Max, with a potential release date of June 20, 2025, although this has not been officially confirmed by Warner Bros. Discovery. The film, directed by Jared Hess and featuring Jason Momoa, premiered in theaters on May 30, 2025. It will be available for digital purchase or rental on platforms like Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home. Physical editions (4K UHD, Blu-ray, DVD) are scheduled for release on June 24, 2025.
In 2025, Minecraft modpacks are evolving, with a focus on technical modpacks and new gameplay experiences. Notable modpacks include "Biohazard: Project Genesis" and "Multiversal Archeology," which emphasize automation and resource gathering. Popular modpacks are introducing intricate quest systems, performance optimizations, and visual enhancements, including high-definition textures and dynamic lighting. Tools like CurseForge and packwiz are streamlining modpack creation and sharing. The Bedrock Edition has seen new modpacks like "Elemental Horizons" and "Survival Evolution." "Technological Frontiers 4" is currently the top-rated modpack on CurseForge. The 1.21 update has influenced modpack developments, leading to new dungeon exploration themes.
Minecraft allows players to create and explore a vast world using blocks. Players often seek new experiences after repetitive gameplay, leading to a choice between using Minecoins or free mods.
Free mods offer infinite content at no cost but require effort to install and manage, particularly for those on consoles or mobile devices. Mods can introduce various features like dragons or minimaps but exist outside the official game framework.
Minecoins are the official in-game currency that allows players to purchase vetted content such as worlds, texture packs, and skins, providing convenience and reliability. This option is appealing to casual gamers or those who prefer a hassle-free experience.
Players can choose between Minecoins for a seamless experience or free mods for customization and experimentation. Many players use both, combining mods for extensive changes and Minecoins for quick enhancements. The choice depends on individual preferences and playstyles.
The open beta for Splitgate 2 was launched on May 22 but faced significant challenges, leading developer 1047 Games to take the servers offline shortly after. CEO Ian Proulx expressed disappointment over the situation and acknowledged that the team had hoped for a smoother rollout. Technical difficulties include slow matchmaking and delays in experience points and progress gains, with player experiences varying widely. The in-game shop is active, but players have faced delays in receiving purchased items, which will be honored upon the game's return. Proulx assured that all transactions have been recorded. The team is addressing various bugs during the downtime, but a timeline for the game's return has not been established. A more comprehensive update is expected later today.
