There is no doubt that “minecraft dungeons” is an absolute success for Microsoft. Proof of this is that, in total, the game has already been played by 25 million people. Therefore, the news that the game will no longer receive updates took everyone by surprise. The statement was published on the game’s blog.
The company announced that the number of players who have tried the game is a record. The million-dollar brand is even widely celebrated by game representatives, given that “Minecraft Dungeons”, released in 2020, was considered a project of smaller scope.
Currently, the game is on update 1.17, which was released in November 2022. After that, however, the Microsoft will no longer release any new features or even corrections for “Dungeons”. One of the main reasons, according to the company, is the fact that they are looking for new experiences within the “Minecraft” universe.
