Minecraft remains one of the best-selling games in history still active. But although Microsoft has managed the intellectual property very well since its ownership, the creator, Markus Persson better known as Notch, has rather failed to take advantage of the enormous fortune he obtained by selling the brand, but it seems that his passion as a developer has not disappeared between bills, because almost out of nowhere the creator announced his return with a new game.
The story began on January 1, when he posted a survey online for his subscribers (more than 3.6 million) to decide what type of project he was going to embark on, with the majority choice being the one that said “Make a Minecraft 2, boomer.” . “”. That said, Today he responded to one of the users by literally stating, “I basically announced Minecraft 2.”.
Over 118,000 users decided it was Minecraft 2
Notch himself is currently open to all financing options, he even comments that if he reached an agreement with Microsoft itself he would collaborate to make this second part, of course, warning that it would be very difficult to work with him. For this same reason, it is necessary to specify, for those who have not yet understood it, Notch can't make a Minecraft 2 with that name, but its spiritual successor can.just as the fanbase wishes it were.
Basically, I announced Minecraft 2.
I thought maybe people REALLY wanted me to make another game very similar to the first one, and I love working on games again.
I don't care exactly which game I make first (or even if I make more), but I know…

In these last hours, Notch seems to be going wild on Twitterso we recommend Minecraft fans to keep an eye on his official account, because he never stops giving interesting information, although many continue to ask him if he is okay, due to the chaotic rhythm and cadence of his answers, which show that Markus does not. I don't exactly mince words.
