The official Minecraft Annual 2017 is a celebration of the game and its community. Inside you'll find challenges set by the Mojang team as well as famous YouTubers like Stampy Cat and FyreUK. There are survival strategies and challenges, Story Mode and Realms features and step-by-step guides to recreate builds from your favourite YouTubers' worlds. And you can read about the ways in which Minecraft has changed the world, from the charitable Block-by-Block foundation, to the epic MineCon event. With all this and more, Minecraft fans will be enjoying the official Minecraft Annual well into 2017.
Mojang is a games studio based in Stockholm, Sweden. Mojang was founded in 2009 by Markus Notch Persson and Jakob Porser. Markus Persson is also the creator of Mojang's best-selling game to date: Minecraft. The alpha version of Minecraft was launched in 2009, and the official game went on sale in 2011. Since then over 100 million copies have been sold, across multiple platforms. It is now the second best-selling video game of all time. In 2014, Mojang was bought by Microsoft. The acquisition hasn't changed much about the company - they still release and support games on multiple platforms, including iOS, Playstation and many more, as well as Windows and Xbox. Mojang plan to keep their independent spirit and continue to treat their community with the respect and honesty it deserves.
