I bring news of skins, achievements, and music! Let’s get on with it.
When most players begin their Minecraft adventure there aren’t many looks to choose from. In fact, you only get to play as our blue-shirted friend. Now, everyone loves Steve – he’s probably the most famous minecrafter in the world, and has excellent stubble.
But jolly old Steve doesn’t really represent the diversity of our playerbase. For that reason, we’re giving all players opportunity to play with an Alex skin instead. She brings thinner arms, redder hair, and a ponytail; she actually looks a bit like Jens from certain angles.
Players on all consoles will get the Alex skins for free this Wednesday.
Playstation people get The Simpsons!
Playstation players are getting another skin pack this week. The Simpsons, and a bunch of their their closest friends, enemies, and acquaintances are on the way. The bundle includes Principal Seymour Skinner, Groundskeeper Willie, everyone’s favourite… Dewey Largo (!) and a lot more. Download it from Wednesday, if you like.
The Simpsons skin pack is already available on Microsoft consoles.
Xbox 360 users get extra achievements and bonus tunes!
Achievements – some love ‘em, some are indifferent to them, some don’t even know they exist. I know Marc is really, really into them them; take from that what you will.
Until now, Minecraft: Xbox One Edition has included more achevements than 360 Edition. That’s a bit silly when you think about it. This update will add 30 new achievements to the Xbox 360 version of Minecraft, boosting the potential gains to a smooth 1000 gamerscore. Hunt them down but don’t let them rule your playtime. And don’t forget to eat or go to the toilet.
We’re also bringing a bundle of new music tracks to Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition. After this update there’ll be more of C418’s plinky plonky goodness in-game. Nice.
That’s it for now! Have a great week and thanks for playing Minecraft, y’all.
今まで、マインクラフト XBOX ONE 版には XBOX 360版より多くの実績が含まれて、実績について考えると、それはちょっとだけ馬鹿げていた。このアップデートでは 30 の新しい実績が XBOX 360 バージョンのマインクラフトに追加されます。これにより 1000 ゲーマースコアは押し上げるでしょう。実績を手に入れろ、しかし君のプレイ時間をそれに支配されてはいけない。あと、食べるのとトイレに行くのは忘れないでね。
マインクラフト XBOX 360 版には、新しいミュージックトラックのバンドルも持ってきたよ。このアップデートの後から、ゲーム内で C418 のシンプルでいい感じの曲が増えるよ。
To celebrate two years of skin sharing, Minecraft Skin Studio has been completely redesigned!
Since the release of Skin Studio over 900,000 skins have been created, almost 3,000,000 comments written, and over 2,500,000 likes cast. Not too shabby. A lot has changed in Minecraft since then too, so rather than patch the older version, the good people at 57digital have remade their app from the ground up.
A completely new user interface and easier to use editing system
Full support for both Steve & Alex
3D Previews everywhere – including while editing your skin!
Uses the new Minecraft API for importing a skin by username
Loads of advanced tools (including the much requested copy & paste!)
Over 900,000 community skins
The ability to submit your own creation to the community or download & modify!
Upload your skin to minecraft.net and change your skin for PC/Mac.
A trial version of Skin Studio is also available. Skin Studio Lite gives you the chance to design a full Minecraft Skin, but with slightly limited tools. It’s also worth pointing out that Skin Studio Pro users get the Encore upgrade for free! Just go to the updates tab on the app store.
Skin Studio のお試しバージョンも利用できます。Skin Studio Lite は全てのマインクラフトのスキンのデザインする事ができる少しだけ機能が限定されたバージョンです。Skin Studio Pro のユーザーが無料でアップグレードできる点もまた注目する価値があります。App ストアでアップデートタブへ行くだけです。
Did you enjoy Info Quest II? I hope so. It took up a lot of resources.
In other news, we’re collaborating with Telltale Games to create Minecraft: Story Mode! Here are some bullet points to celebrate!
Minecraft: Story mode will be a narrative-driven video game created by Telltale Games. It will be about Minecraft.
Mojang is collaborating with Telltale and members of the community to make Minecraft: Story Mode as Minecrafty as possible.
The first episode will be released some time in 2015, and will be available on Xbox consoles, PlayStation consoles, PC, Mac, iOS, and Android-based devices.
Minecraft: Story Mode will be released episodically, just like The Wolf Among Us, The Walking Dead, or the recent Tales from the Borderlands, which is another developer-collaboration series between Telltale Games and Gearbox Software.
We’re not intending on creating an “official” story for Steve, or explaining the world of Minecraft in detail. It will be a cool game.
The Minecraft 2 thing was a joke. No really. It was a joke.
マイクラのストーリーモードはエピソード風にリリースされる予定で、「The Wolf Among Us」や「ウォーキング・デッド(The Walking Dead)」、または最近の「ボーダーランズ(Tales from the Borderlands)」のように。「Tales from the Borderlands」は他のディベロッパー Telltale Games と Gearbox Software の間でコラボしたシリーズ。
