Minecraft<\/strong>, one of the most popular and influential games of the last 15 years, will stop providing service<\/strong> to users who continue playing the 32-bit version on Windows<\/strong>, which means that players who use this old version of Minecraft will not be able to play this version until they update everything necessary to run the 64-bit version<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is something common in the technology sector, since the obsolescence of old models and architectures<\/strong> causes software of all kinds of systems, whether they are programs, applications or video games, to eventually become unavailable in those versions. However, this problem is quickly solved<\/strong>, since the 64-bit standard has been implemented for many years<\/strong> and practically all current computers operate under this architecture.<\/p>\n\n\n

Minecraft leaves 32 bits behind on Windows<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As Mojang has announced in the details of their latest Snapshot<\/a>, all Minecraft players on Windows will have to run the 64-bit version<\/strong> to enjoy the game on their device. This means that soon, 32-bit Minecraft players will no longer be supported<\/strong>. At the moment, it has not been mentioned that the same will happen on other platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is something understandable if you consider that the 32-bit architecture is practically obsolete<\/a> nowadays, although there are still users who choose systems of this type in 2024<\/strong>. In some cases, it may be due to economic reasons, but in many others, it is already a genuine preference that has fewer and fewer incentives<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Present and Future of Minecraft<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Nowadays, Minecraft still has the privilege of being the best-selling video game in history, with over 300 million copies sold<\/strong>, far surpassing the second place, held by GTA V with 190 million units. And it is that, without the need for major changes<\/a> over the years, this game has managed to establish the standards that are currently followed in most survival games (not by creating them, but by popularizing these mechanics).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With that situation, Mojang is aware that, what works, doesn’t need to be excessively touched<\/strong>. In fact, despite strong free competition appearing, such as in the case of LEGO Fortnite<\/a>, Minecraft still has a strong dominant position and remains immensely popular, with an audience that, despite being critical of its conservative update policies<\/strong>, remains fully committed to a title that has made its mark on the video game industry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
