Modding is huge in the Java version of Minecraft, big enough that many players ignore official Minecraft updates until their favourite mods carry over. Steam offered modders a 25% cut.Īs I've said before, I don't strictly oppose paid mods as I do think it could let more people support their work - and the thriving and vibrant free games scene shows many are happy to still release things free even when they have the option of monetisation. Mojang say that "the app store platforms take a 30% cut, but creators get the majority after that." Without precise figures or a breakdown, I couldn't tell you how it'll shake out. Mojang do say the Coins "let creators set flexible prices" so. How much will things actually cost? All worlds in the few announcement screens are priced at 960 Coins, which comes out at around $5.50. Items of on the Minecraft Marketplace will be sold for 'Minecraft Coins', a virtuacash sold in bundles in the usual microtransaction way. And, of course, you can still manually download free community creations you've found out there on the internet, too."
"The idea is to give Minecraft creators another way to make a living from the game, allowing them to support themselves in the creation of ever-greater projects, while giving Pocket and Windows 10 players access to a growing catalogue of fun stuff - curated and supplied by us, safely and simply. Purchases should be cross-platform through shared Xbox Live accounts. The Minecraft Marketplace is due to launch this spring. And this is only in Microsoft's rebuild of Minecraft, to be clear, not the original Java version. Mojang say they'll curate the store and only accept submissions from registered businesses, so it won't be quite as much of a free-for-all as Steam and Skyrim's crack at paid mods in 2015. Mojang have announced the Minecraft Marketplace, a microtransaction store coming to sell skin and texture packs, adventure worlds, minigames, and more in the brick 'em up's Windows 10 and pocket telephone version. All right: who picked Minecraft in the pool for who'd try paid mods next? Come see me to collect your winnings.
