Minecraft Legends 'deep dive' video feature

Microsoft may have held their Xbox and Bethesda Games Showcase 2022 on Sunday, but they weren’t done there. The company also hosted an Xbox Games Showcase Extended 2022 feature today as well, which gave a deeper look at a handful of titles. One of those happened to be Minecraft Legends, and you can watch the 4-minute feature above.

Minecraft Legends is a unique action strategy game. It has strategy elements at its core, but its mechanics are inspired by the immersion of action games. You get to explore the familiar yet in-many-ways-new Overworld in a third-person perspective. You will defend peaceful settlements and fight hordes of piglins to stop the spread of their Nether corruption. You are the center of every battle you lead, fighting alongside your allies while giving them directions. We’ll reveal more about how you’ll achieve the monumental task of repelling the piglins’ invasion in the coming months.
