Minecraft Legends Release Guide – Getting Started

When starting up Minecraft Legends for the first time, players will be greeted by four options, Campaign, Versus, Lost Legends and Myths, and Marketplace. From there, your desired type of gameplay can be selected, but campaign is recommended. Campaign provides fun story while teaching players the various mechanics unique to the game. Those who complete it can also jump over to “Lost Legends and Myths” for monthly challenges that add a twist to the standard gameplay. Both options can be done alone or in multiplayer co-op. If you are searching for legends of war, then versus is the place to be. Here teams of four go head-to-head in multiplayer PVP. The goal is to capture the enemy base while defending your own from both enemy players and piglin NPCs. Finally, the marketplace is where one can buy cosmetics for real money.

Our Initial Thoughts

Minecraft Legends set out to be a more accessible real-time strategy game, and we believe it achieves that goal relatively well. The campaign is fun and the characters are memorable, the unique monthly challenges keep things fresh, and the PvP was enjoyable, even for amateur players. Will it be the next Starcraft? No, but it’s worth a try, especially for those stepping into the genre.

A Legend Awaits!
