"Minecraft" is undoubtedly one of the most iconic series in the gaming world.Its original creator Notch started developing the game from an inconspicuous foundation in 2009 and developed it into the absolute giant we see today, thanks to the studio being rolled out at a sky-high $2.5 billion over a decade agoMojang sold to Microsoft.Since 2014, he has no longer participated in the development of the Minecraft game.

It's no surprise that we've seen little of Notch do anything with new games since that sale, after all, wealth is free.He does develop games in his spare time, though, and started talking about future projects on X a few days ago.It was during this round of tweets that Notch threw a bombshell, and he was eager to make a spiritual sequel to Minecraft, Minecraft2.

In a social media (X) post, Markus "Notch" Persson whets fans' appetites, suggesting a potential sequel to Minecraft, which he calls "Minecraft 2".

The Minecraft creator asked fans on his personal X what they hope he will do in the next game, whether to develop Minecraft 2 or continue what he described as a "traditional meat pigeon game + brick-based first-person dungeon mining game"”:

“The new game I’m currently passionate about developing is a traditional meat pigeon game (such as ADOM, nethack, etc.), a mix of tile-based first-person dungeon mining games (such as Legend of the Magic Rocks)Especially 2), "Evil Eye").

But then I thought, maybe some people like my work, but they may not agree with my taste for retro nostalgia, they may prefer me to make a spiritual sequel to Minecraft, I mean, of course, who is there anyDon't want to make money."

When asked if he could make Minecraft2 without Microsoft or Mojang, Notch admitted, “No, that would be super illegal.” But he did hint that “[I can] make a model with Minecraft》The new original game with the same type and a different name.

"No, that would be super illegal. Instead, I would make a new original game with the same Minecraft genre and take a different name. These are traditionally called 'spiritual sequels', but usually feel a little bit likeBland. But if this is really what people want, I would be more than happy to make this game. It would be my own 'Gremlins 2'. "

Notch proposed that if Microsoft was interested in his return to the series, he would be ready: “If Microsoft wanted me to do this for some reason and we agreed on the terms somehow, I would definitely be willing to do this.They would even give them a larger share than I should have to make it clear that I have no malice in doing so. But I would be a hard guy to work with.”

This naturally caused a lot of speculation online about potential sequels.Since its initial release in 2011, discussions about Minecraft2 have been a little meaningless, as the original game continues to be sold.

While some doubted the degree of seriousness of Notch's announcement, he still insisted that it was true.In another post, Persson told his fans, “I…respected very much to be someone who keeps his promises.”

He said: “I basically announced Minecraft2.

I think maybe people really want me to make a game that is very similar to the first one, and I also like to start making games again.

I don't actually care which game I made in the first place (even if I did more), but I knew I would make a game, so I decided to try to do a Minecraft sequel and vote on it.

My purpose is to tell you clearly and honestly that spiritual sequels are usually... you know... declining, tragic.It was me worried that my next game might turn out to be something like that, so I would try to avoid going down that path.So, why not do what everyone really wants, or even be willing to pay more for it?

I plan to use this money for something meaningful, but my goodness, I've learned that I'll fail many times.Success is finding a way to succeed in failure.

Oh, and I really value being someone who keeps my promises, so I plan to do it in a way that never sneaks into the great way of working on the Mojang team, and the "Microsoft-style messing" that Microsoft is doing is completelyIt's their job, and I respect them doing it.From what I understand, they let the studio do it their way, which is very fair to me."

Will "Minecraft2" really happen?

Whether Notch will actually make his spiritual sequel similar to Minecraft 2 remains to be seen, but he seems clear that if this is what the audience wants, he will do it.
