What is the Minecraft Bedrock Time Capsule add-on?

The Minecraft Bedrock Time Capsule add-on is a free pack being given away to players as part of the celebration of 15 years of the game in the Bedrock marketplace. It adds a unique time capsule that faithfully recreates the real-life installation at the Microsoft Visitor Center in Redmond, Washington, which is set to open on the 30th anniversary, on May 17, 2039.

The Minecraft Bedrock Time Capsule add-on adds a unique time capsule under a cherry blossom, featuring an adorable animation where two popular default characters come and set up the installation. Once done, players can put in an array of items and blocks to store as keepsakes inside the capsule.

After placing their desired items, blocks, and things, players will get a prompt to select their desired settings. They can choose to name the capsule and then decide the time format to be followed — either the Minecraft time, which follows the in-game speed (20 minutes = 1 day), or the Real World Time (24 hours = 1 day).

Next, they can choose the duration of locking the capsule, ranging from one second to fifteen years, coinciding with the 30th anniversary of the game on May 17, 2039. The time capsule is a great way for players to store favorite items or even jot down their memories on a book and quill and place it for their future selves.

Each stored item will also get a unique label that shows how they have been preserved, making it a great way for players to show off their treasures from back in the memory lane.
