Thanks to this, our staff can moderate our network much more efficiently, and we no longer have to rely on player evidence submissions. Throughout 2021, we developed a fully-fledged replay system. Player safety and experience is incredibly important to us. Great use of the new blocks introduced in Minecraft over the past year!Įnding the year strong came our WinterFest: a very wintery experience including a functional train, multi-stage in-hub quest with many rewards, and the return of the Snow Wars minigame. Halloween brought back our classic Ghost Invasion game, and came with one of our most advanced in-hub hunts yet: a full rune hunt. The first post-summer hub was our Autumn Hub, followed soon by the Halloween hub in late October. Alongside the Easter update, we also released the BlockDrop minigame, a well-received game that will return in 2022. Two months later in our last pre-summer update, the Easter Hub came in with the classic egg hunt. Starting out the year with a New Year hub, this lead into our first ever Lunar New Year hub in early February. Some of the incredible hubs seen throughout the year! We had a big number of seasonal updates this year, each bringing a brand new hub and often paired with fresh maps and other content. In the months leading up to the actual event, we added support for custom blocks, custom sounds, animations, and a whole lot of other tech. ![]() Not only did the Sonic event allow us to work with (and on!) much-beloved video game characters, it also helped elevate The Hive to the next level. With all 3 live events pulling in over 55,000 participants, in total over 150,000 of our players experienced this once-in-a-lifetime display. All this content released with the Sonic update came to an epic conclusion with our biggest live event yet: a vast, interactive spectacle in which all participating players helped defeat Eggman and his many badniks. The event launched with a full hub takeover, a party-style minigame with multiple microgames, and a plethora of free content to unlock. Releasing on July 12th, this well-received collaboration set the standard for future content to come. In all secrecy, preparations had begun on our biggest undertaking yet: a massive Sonic event, in collaboration with SEGA. Happy New Year! With 2021 over, we look back on another awesome year, and ahead to all that is coming in 2022. ![]()
