This is how the campaign begins: a familiar world that wastes no time in differentiating itself from its parent game. That much is clear from the cinematics we saw in the livestream, which introduced us to the idea of a Minecraft overworld where all the usual enemies - zombies, skellies, creepers - are actually our friends, united in their horror at a piglin army spilling out of a Nether portal nearby. Like its elder sibling Minecraft Dungeons, Minecraft Legends is a very clean and polished game filled with a youthful charm designed to ensnare (predominately) a young generation.
This will likely be a solid introduction to the RTS genre for a lot of players, but I came away unsure about whether the game will have enough depth to keep its prospective playerbase's attention. It's a curious blend of action adventure and RTS, one that shares Minecraft's focus on exploration, but guides the player down a stricter, simpler path of summoning friendly mobs and constructing defences to repel a Piglin invasion.
I recently was treated to the most in-depth look so far at Minecraft Legends, in an hour-long livestream which gave us all some much needed answers on what manner of beast Legends actually is. And despite some fundamental changes in genre and perspective, it's something that the team behind the upcoming Minecraft Legends has tried hard to preserve. It's a promise of all the myriad adventures to come. Dropping into that first forest, punching that first tree. There's always been something quite comforting about loading into a brand new Minecraft world.
