Minecraft It started out as a humble development that came from Sweden. The video game proposed graphics that might seem like a step backwards, but which have been part of the key to its success. It is based on construction cubes, and the truth is that it supports doing a lot of things, from building freely, exploring, etc.
Mojang has also created an edition dedicated to education that has revolutionized some classrooms. And with each step they have taken, they have been reaping more and more successes. Currently millions of players play on different platforms, such as Android, Windows, Linux, etc. In fact, it already has more than 200 million copies sold, making it one of the best-selling video games.
Markus "Notch" Persson It was its creator, who would later create the Mojan company behind this video game. Due to its success, he sold the company and is now part of Microsoft, with a purchase worth 2500 billion dollars. And that is a figure that makes clear the tremendous success of this company.
And the most important thing is that it does not stop growing. There are more and more users in Minecraft. In fact, this new milestone of surpassing all 200 million copies it has been achieved only 4 years after having reached 100 million back in 2016. Something that gives an idea of the growth potential. In fact, on Google's YouTube platform, Minecraft is one of the games that accumulates the most visits for its videos.
In addition, they already prepare news, which you will surely know. On May 26 the title will appear Minecraft Dungeons. The sad thing is that since they are owned by Microsoft, it will not have support for Linux, as it happened with the previous titles. Therefore, you will not be able to enjoy it. It seems that Microsoft "loves Linux" when it interests it and nothing else ... Therefore, to enjoy it, you will have to use Wine or some streaming video game service.
