Minecraft has turned 11 whole years old. To mark the milestone, the sandbox game's developer Mojang has overhauled its brand, with a new logo, trailer, and even an updated name: Mojang Studios. In addition, it's also shared some staggering figures on how many units the game's sold to-date, and how many players dive into the iconic block builder each and every month - and they're into the hundreds of millions. Mojang studio head, Helen Chiang, takes a look back at the last year in a blog post on Microsoft's site, concluding that it's "been an incredible year for Minecraft". Along with the rollout of Minecraft Earth around the world, the release of the Minecraft Nvidia RTX update beta, and "closing out 2019 as the most viewed game on YouTube", Chiang explains the open-world game's also shifted an enormous number of copies. "We are humbled that there have now been more than 200 million copies of Minecraft sold to date," she says - and "126 million people are now playing Minecraft every month."
