'Minecraft' Update: New Mixer Support and Musical Video Released
Game developer Mojang seems to be determined to keep up the hype for "Minecraft" despite their recent announcement that the Super Duper Graphics pack and the Nintendo Switch cross-platform multiplayer will be delayed to 2018. "Minecraft" has received a new update and a new musical starring "Supergirl" Melissa Benoist.
According to reports, the latest update released for "Minecraft" is meant to encourage players to share and show off their work to other players by allowing them to live stream their progress through the Microsoft Mixer. Once fans are satisfied with their universe, the Mixer support will allow them to take other players on a tour. Furthermore, it will also allow for interactive sessions that would allow the audience to manipulate things like the time of day and the spawning objects.
The Microsoft Mixer support for "Minecraft" is now available for Android, Windows PC, and Xbox One versions. As for the other platforms, Mojang is hoping to roll out the update in the coming weeks.
