A Microsoft and Mojang employee has confirmed that the Minecraft severs aren't shutting down in 2020.

In case you required any further proof that the Minecraft servers aren't shutting down in 2020, a Mojang/Microsoft employee has tweeted that the game is not stopping.

It all started with an innocent-looking bug report about hitboxes and eye heights. You see, all Minecraft mobs have a hitbox – an invisible box that represents how much space the mob occupies. If you play Minecraft on PC or Mac, you can see all the game's hitboxes by pressing the super-secret key combination F3+B (don't tell anyone). This page's purpose is to retrace the history of all events related to Minecraft, Mojang Studios and its employees in a less targeted manner than the different version history pages. 1 Births of Mojang employees and staff 2 Updates per year 2.1 Java Edition 2.2 Bedrock/Pocket Edition 2.3 Legacy Console Edition 3 2009 3.1 April 2009 3.2 May 2009 – Birth of Minecraft 3.3 June 2009 3.4 August.

Once more for the folks who missed the tweet the first time I posted it. Minecraft is NOT stopping, Mojang is NOT closing. #Minecrafthttps://t.co/V4Lzv97qOc

Original story:

There's been a lot of stories lately about this and that popular mainstream product coming to an end this year. Fortnite free download pc. Users of Tik Tok have recently been victims of such rumours, and now there is lately genuine concern amongst some that Mojang are shutting down the Minecraft servers in 2020.

Minecraft continues to be an incredibly popular product on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, and there's been particularly good news with the former as Sony have finally allowed cross-play to be implemented.

Minecraft shutting down in 2020 rumour explained

The rumour about Minecraft shutting down in 2020 was started by a website called Channel 45 News.

This is a website that allows anyone to a create a prank news story and share it on Facebook to trick people.

'Mojang has announced on their Twitter that Minecraft will shut down their servers on December 21st, 2020,' says the post Minecraft Will Shut Down Their Servers in Late 2020. 'The founder, Markus Alexji Persson, known as 'Notch,' says that he feels like 11 years was enough for the game's period and it should say it's farewells and leave the stores when the end of 2020 hits, according to his interview.'

Obviously the above is nothing more than a prank as Mojang haven't announced anything on Twitter and the Channel 45 News website doesn't even attempt to feign legitimacy.

Minecraft has always been about creativity. Its 1.8 update for PC will add a new way to be creative — changing your character's name.

According to Minecraft developer Mojang, name-changing is 'one of the most requested features since the birth of Minecraft.' Its planned system for enabling name changes will rely on unique user IDs that never change. These permanent IDs will ensure that players who are banned, whitelisted, or oped (Minecraft's equivalent of being given moderator privileges) on a server don't lose their status when their name changes. Today, Mojang made prerelease build 1.7.6 available, which doesn't support name-changing but fully supports the unique user IDs.

Mojang says that it will enable name changes after it releases the official Minecraft 1.8 build and after a significant number of people have updated to it. For the meantime, it isn't giving any more details on how the system will work. Is website says: 'We want it to be easy and freely available, but we also don't want people changing their name every 5 minutes!' Mojang also revealed that it wouldn't be possible to simultaneously have the same name as another Minecraft player.

Here are Mojang's instructions for gaining access to the prerelease:
