We like to think we do a decent job of keeping you up-to-date on all the goings on in Minecraft right here on this website - but there are some things that the digital medium just can’t do. The smell of crisp, freshly printed pages. The heft of a new glossy mag in your hands. The reassurance that you can read it in the bath without fear of electrocution.
And so, together with our publishing partner Egmont (responsible for our many fine books) we’ve put together a wonderful papery companion for Minecraft - packed with dev insight, fun and frolics. There are elite building tips, survival stories and so, so much more to be found within. There’s even a comic, illustrated by the truly amazing Trudi Castle and starring new Minecrafting heroes - Bear, Scout, Monty and Sparks - who also dole out useful ‘crafting advice throughout the mag. You’ll hear more about them soon!
Every page is a delight - and you can pluck it from UK shelves VERY SOON for a mere £4.99, before it becomes available in other countries.
It’s a really gorgeous thing to behold - and super-useful, too: the first issue contains 14 pages of hints and tips, with each build broken down into detailed steps that show readers how to improve their game and hone their building skills. Try as we might here on Minecraft.net, there’s something magical about The Double-Page Spread which cannot be replicated outside of print.
Print 4 Ever. I ♥ print.
