Minecraft Legends is a planned action-strategy video game developed by Mojang Studios and Blackbird Interactive. It is a Minecraft spin-off that will be launched on April 18, 2023.
Many people have been wondering whether Mojang's Minecraft Legends will be free to play as it nears release. While fans are preparing ahead to purchase Minecraft Legends, they frequently wonder whether it's going to be available on Xbox Game Pass or if it's going to be free to play in general.
How much is Minecraft Legends going to cost?
Unfortunately, those asking whether Minecraft Legends is free will be disappointed. Minecraft Legends will be available in two editions at launch: the Standard Edition (the base game) for $39.99 USD and the Deluxe Edition for $49.99 USD.
While Minecraft Legends is not a free game, it is a premium game that anyone with an Xbox Game Pass subscription can buy or play for no additional cost. This is because the game will be included in the Xbox Game Pass library from the start, allowing anyone with a membership to play it as much as they like without paying anything extra.
What does the Deluxe Edition for Minecraft Legends have?
As previously stated, Minecraft Legends will be available in two editions: the Standard Version ($39.99) and the Deluxe Edition ($49.99). The Deluxe Edition includes both the main game and the Deluxe Skin pack at a reduced price.
The Deluxe Skin Pack includes one hero skin, four mount skins to customize your faithful steed, and an additional mount skin when it becomes available after launch. The Deluxe Skin Pack will also be sold individually for $14.99 in the future. But keep in mind that purchasing the Deluxe Edition saves you money over buying the base game and the Deluxe Skin Pack individually.
When will Minecraft Legends be released and for which platforms?
As stated on the official Minecraft website, Minecraft Legends will be released on April 18th, 2023. Moreover, regardless of the fact that Mojang was bought by Microsoft, the game will still be accessible on several platforms. This trend is likely to continue with Minecraft Legends, which will be available on the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5|4, Steam, Windows 11|10, PC Game Pass, Xbox Game Pass, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Xbox Cloud Gaming.
