Mojang’s announcement about the Minecraft Netflix animated series had left the gaming community in a storm early last year, prompting many to wonder when they could watch it. Additionally, the recent success of the Minecraft movie contributed to the hype, so it comes as no surprise that fans were excited after a much-awaited update was shared by one of the core members.
Here’s everything you need to know about the latest update on the upcoming Minecraft Netflix animated series.
Fans receive update on the much-awaited Minecraft Netflix animated series a year after it was announced
Mojang had announced the Minecraft Netflix animated series early in 2024, leaving fans and the extended community excited. With the Minecraft movie being teased a while after that announcement, gamers were naturally hyped about an animated series on the popular streaming platform.
However, after the initial announcement in June 2024, neither the developers nor the producers had provided any update regarding the progress on the series. Now, a recent post by an eager fan caught the attention of Torfi Frans Ólafsson, the senior creative director of entertainment at Minecraft. This is what he had to say when the user asked about the fate of the Minecraft Netflix animated series:
“All in due time. Keep in mind that it’s a lot of frames.”
The senior Mojang employee and director of the A Minecraft Movie confirmed that production was ongoing and it would release in “due time”. He further stated that the additional delay was caused due to the massive amount of frames being generated and created for the series. Since it is animated, designers will have to work hard to create every single moment, rather than shooting the scene.
So, it comes as no surprise that the multi-episode Minecraft Netflix animated series is taking some time to complete. However, Ólafsson did not give any more information regarding a potential release date. Fans of the franchise will have to wait for an announcement from the developers to see when the much-awaited series makes its way to the ever-expanding catalog of Netflix.
