"We’re eternally grateful for the amazing talent in the Minecraft community. Your feedback and creations brought this game to an entirely different level, from the regular build challenges you absolutely smashed to the incredible builds you shared on social media," Mojang said. From the surface, you may mistake Minecraft Earth for other games in its class.Pokémon GO and Harry Potter Wizards Unite are two of the most popular AR titles on the market, but they lack the real-world AR capability that developers have promised for the last ten years. "We want to take a moment to thank all of the players and creators that are bringing new adventures, mobs, and free in-game items for the community to enjoy while we finalize our timeline for sunsetting the game. Players who sign into the game prior to June 30 will also be given a set of Character Creator items. Real-money transactions have been removed, ruby costs have been "drastically" reduced, crafting and smelting time requirements are also cut, unused crafting and smelting boosts have been replaced with radius boosts of the same level, and all completed but unreleased content has now been added to the game.
