The game features rich and expansive worlds that are rendered in a unique way – using large pixelated blocks made out of numerous materials. As of early 2024, Minecraft: Java & Bedrock Edition for PC has managed on Windows and other platforms to collectively be sold in over 300 million copies, surpassing even the legendary Tetris. Because of its focus on simplicity, discovery, randomized environments, freedom of choice, and ability to host incredibly large creations imagined by its players, after its release on PC in 2011 the game very quickly became not only one of the landmark titles that influenced the development of many future games but also the commercially most successful video game of all time.
