Minecraft Live is an annual event held by Microsoft and Mojang Studios to give fans of the franchise heaps of news about what's to come in the following year. Here in 2023, there will likely be plenty of information on the upcoming 1.21 update. It doesn't end there, as the yearly live event also hosts a Mob Vote where players can decide the next in-game mob arriving in an upcoming major update.

Minecraft Live doesn't just address the titular sandbox game either, as Mojang often provides updates about upcoming content for spin-off titles like Dungeons/Legends.

But when will Minecraft Live 2023 take place? The good news is that fans won't have to wait long for this development-packed event.
