Many fans agree that Mojang's title sets the standard for sandbox crafting games, and even after eleven years of operation, Minecraft is thriving by just about any definition. It's had a modestly successful spinoff in the form of Minecraft Dungeons , an isometric dungeon crawler which took fans quite by surprise when it was revealed. Minecraft is also receiving regular content updates and managing a sustained explosion of popularity on YouTube, where it accumulated 200 billion views this year al


While these uploads started as a joke, it will be interesting to see if Dunkey returns to his normal weekly uploads. Before the switch, Videogamedunkey's videos averaged 2.5 million views, and his daily uploads have averaged the same number of views. When looking at Dunkey's videos from a financial standpoint, he would theoretically be making seven times the amount of ad revenue per week by uploading daily instead of weekly. While creating content instead of his usual "mastapieces" could prove to be more profitable, it will be interesting to see how long Dunkey can stomach non-stop Among Us _ and Minecraft _ uplo


Popular gaming YouTuber Videogamedunkey has seemingly abandoned his traditional approach to making videos in an elaborate joke meant to roast content creators who are riding the wave of Among Us _ and Minecraft _ 's popularity. Dunkey has dropped his weekly upload schedule in exchange for low-effort daily videos that are still more entertaining than the creators they are meant to emul


Although it is not technically in the bullet hell genre, it shares many of the same characteristics. It is simple, and yet chaotic. It uses a repetitive gameplay loop and simplified controls with auto-attacking that gives you such a wonderful sense of satisfaction as you mow down enemies with extreme violence. Yet, it isn't all entirely repetitive as, different random events can be trigger


We all have days when we want to relax but feel too tired to think very hard. Playing a challenging and intense video game feels like too much, but perhaps just running around in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom _ or playing through a simple, low-stakes puzzle game like _Dorfromantik might be the perfect solution. Thankfully, there are several games, across various genres, that can still be fun to play even when you just want to turn your brain


Videogamedunkey, or Dunkey for short, is a YouTuber with over 6 million subscribers who uploads comedic gaming montages, critical video essays, and game reviews. Dunkey's videos can vary widely in terms of their content from solo gameplay bathed in his signature sarcastic humor, playing games with his friends while annoying them, or ditching humor altogether to break down his more serious viewpoints on certain games. Regardless of the type of video Dunkey produces, each contains hours of writing, recording, and editing all done by the Dunkster hims


While the point of Dunkey's daily videos was to take a jab at YouTube's algorithm rewarding lazy creators, his hypothesis was proven correct when YouTube sent him a message alerting Dunkey that he had received 344 percent more views in a single week due to publishing more content. Dunkey's new videos are hilarious while proving to be a commentary on the current state of YouTube's gaming sphere. From hopping on the Among Us bandwagon to reacting to other peoples' videos, YouTube creators are taking advantage of trends and sacrificing quality for quantity in terms of videos. As they should since YouTube rewards this behavior, and even sends encouraging messages to creators who upload more of


As far as ambitious media crossovers go, however, few are on the same level as those done with Star Wars .

Crossplay will be a feature in Minecraft Dungeons for Nintendo Switch news|https://switchmixzone.com/ Switch, Windows, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4. In a tweet today from the Minecraft Dungeons Twitter account, the free update was confirmed to be landing on November 17 for everyone. There was no word on whether or not the update would be making its way to next-gen consoles like PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series X/S. The game will however be available on next-gen consoles, both of which release this w


Now, fans have an official Minecraft and Star Wars mash-up, as announced in a trailer from Nintendo on YouTube earlier today. The star of the trailer is clearly The Mandalorian 's Baby Yoda , but the content will also feature a slew of other classic Star Wars content, like locations from the Original Trilogy (Hoth, Cloud City, and Mos Eisley Cantina) and skins of iconic characters (Leia, Han Solo, Luke, Chewbacca, Darth Vader, and more).

MinecraftJavaSpeedrunning is currently holding a Minecraft speedrunning tournament where runners compete against one another to see who can beat the Ender Dragon the fastest. During a round between runners Kiryokoe and Korbanoes, an add for baby blockers blocked the screen of Kiryukoe's stream. This was due to the stream broadcasting both competitors' streams simultaneously via a display capture source in OBS. The viewers were forced to watch the ad as if it were part of the event, but the commentators' reactions made it clear it was not. The below clip from the stream was shared on Reddit's r/LivestreamFails by user Guydangerus

Minecraft speedrunning can be exciting to watch on its own, but it's moments like these that make streaming so special.

Even though Minecraft Earth will be shutdown this year, the original version of the game is still going strong with original user content and mods constantly being added on top of continuous support from the development team themselves.

Minecraft is a wildly popular game developed by Mojang studios. Following its initial release in 2011, Minecraft has grown to be the bestselling video game of all time. Over 200 million copies have sold and as of 2020, there are roughly 126 million monthly users that still enjoy it. The procedurally generated 3D world lets players build just about anything they can imagine and craft items, fight off monsters, or even become a farmer. The game has been ported and released across almost every platform imaginable, including mobile platforms and just about every video game console released since the Xbox

According to the official blog post by Mojang , the list of features included in the 20w45a snapshot is pretty impressive, although it doesn’t cover all the novelties that the Caves & Cliffs _ update is about to add to _Minecraft . Perhaps, the most enticing addition is the introduction of bundles – specialized items that are used to carry and store other items. These are not proper backpacks, unfortunately, as their internal space is limited to a single stack, although it could be any combination of items. For instance, a bundle can contain 32 blocks of stone, 16 blocks of iron ore, and 4 ender pearls - or 64 different individual blocks. Apart from that, the 20w45a snapshot contains amethyst blocks spawning in clusters, new candle decorative items, blocks of copper (and, obviously, copper ore along with craftable recipes), and last but not least, spyglass and tinted glass, both of which require extremely rare amethyst shards. Players should be aware that the snapshot can potentially corrupt their save games, therefore it's highly recommended to back up the fi

As catalogued by Twitter user defnoodles , hardcore Dream "stans" have since taken matters into their own hands, when Dream posted a picture of his kitchen to one of his Twitter accounts (whether they were motivated by his cheating or by his face reveal is unknown). Using online real estate marketplace Zillow, Twitter user mazouwu managed to figure out Dream's precise address and offered the information to anyone who asked before deleting all of the content from their acco


In the new State of Stream from November 2020 at Stream Elements , Twitch reported that while there was only a .5% month-over-month increase, it was still enough to bring in another milestone of nearly 1.7 billion hours watched. While some games did experience a drop in viewership, like Among Us or Grand Theft Auto 5, new games saw a major increase in views with releases that sparked viewership, like Minecraft’s Star Wars DLC that became available to purchase. That resulted in a 60% change in viewership for that particular game. Just Chatting has kept its number-one spot among the most-viewed content, with nearly 228 million hours watched – but that is an all-time high. There has also been a new streamer that has topped the charts over xQcOW, and that is Gaules, who has now sat atop the streaming charts three times. Another new streamer that has made his way into the top 10 is Sykkuno, popularized with his lets plays of Minecraft and Among


Another big winner in Apple’s awards was Genshin Impact , which took home the top prize for Game of the Year for iPhones devices . The free-to-play game managed to capture many with its Breath of the Wild feel despite fears that the game’s gacha mechanics would deter players. Genshin Impact is far from struggling; in fact, according to one report, the game is tantalizingly close to an amazing financial milestone. From the game’s release in September to the end of November the game brought in nearly $400 million dollars on mobile platforms al


During the month of November, Twitch hit a brand-new milestone with the most viewers in the platform's history watching content.

It also has a thriving modding community, which is responsible for nintendo switch dlc|https://switchmixzone.com/ this remarkably violent new mod courtesy of user Sibogy (via PCGamesN ). DOOMED: Demons of the Nether brings the blood-stained, demon-infested environs of the 2016 Doom game into Mojang 's tranquil masterpiece. Shooter fans will recognize all the sound effects from Doom , as well as VEGA's calm robotic voice guiding Doomguy's blocky new form through the halls. The new footage revealed by Sibogy shows the player facing off against a notorious Pinky demon, which appears to be a sort of reskinned cow. The player has familiar Doom weapons at their disposal, including a UAC pistol, a shotgun, and a chainsaw they can use to spawn ammo from zombies. There are also familiar portals and bounce pads to help Doomguy maneuver about the space and attack the Pinky's vulnerable b

Winners of Apple ’s App Store Best of 2020 were announced today with Among Us _ and Minecraft _ taking first place in key categories. Both games have been around for some time - Minecraft originally released on mobile platforms nearly 10 years ago and Among Us in 2018 - but the two games remain popular today. Among Us has been especially notable this year as its popularity unexpectedly skyrocketed years after its launch, capturing the imagination of many fa


Despite the fact that he's never shown his face on-screen, Dream's internet fanbase grew by 12.5 million followers to a total of 14 million between January and November 2020 alone, largely thanks to his Minecraft speedruns and his fan-made Minecraft Manhunt and subsequent series of videos . But his reputation recently took a darker turn due to suspicions surrounding the legitimacy of his Minecraft prowess, along with a growing fan obsession to see what the enigmatic streamer actually looks like. The latter came to a head when YouTuber Mr. Beast posted a Rewind for 2020 that teased Dream revealing his face for the first time. However, the tease was all that fans were going to get, as Dream's face was ultimately obscured by his YouTube icon smiley face during the "reveal," which made it plain that Dream didn't plan to reveal his identity any time soon. Some fans were satisfied with that, but several were evidently

It's also worth noting that this announcement comes as a complete surprise to fans, who weren't expecting any Minecraft and Star Wars mash-ups in the near future outside of that content's obvious inclusion on many players' wishlists for future updates. While the character skins certainly port in interesting ways in some cases - Baby Yoda is adorable , while actual Yoda's expressionless face is frightening - they open up a lot of options for the already robust amount of skins available in Minecra


For a family-friendly title, Minecraft can't seem to stay away from controversial situations of a sexual nature. Less than a month ago, Minecraft Steve made his debut as a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate , but his first few hours on the battlefield were tarnished due to players using Steve to build hilariously inappropriate structures . That's not even to mention one of Steve's victory screens, where he is wielding a steak in a rather precarious manner. Thankfully, Nintendo had enough sense to remove the meat from Steve's hand in the game's most recent upd

Minecraft's mixture of Survival Mode and Creative Mode gameplay has given players the best of both worlds when it comes to building cool projects. Survival Mode forces players to deal with dangers, limited resources, and perpetual hunger while they try to make their mark on the world.

Both game modes have resulted in some amazing builds, and both can benefit from user-created mods, which can often be better than official Minecraft upda
