Mİnecraft Legends is centered around tactical combat with multiple modes on offer. There is a lush campaign that will tell you more about the world and the threat of the Piglin army, as well as many online competitive modes which will have you face off with other players.

Can you, however, play with friends? Well, thankfully you can.

Does Minecraft Legends have multiplayer and co-op?

Yes, Minecraft Legends has both competitive multiplayer modes and a co-op option. These features were showcased in the game’s trailer.

In the PvE game mode, players can hop onto the same instance with their friends to build together. Fans can join or leave PvE instances whenever they want, picking up their progression from where they left it off during their last adventure. For PvP, there are eight-player servers where players get divided into two teams of four.

In the future, Mojang may also decide to spice things up with additional multiplayer game modes in Minecraft Legends. Experimenting with a new concept requires a lot of data as the developer will need to watch the trends on their new title to identify patterns.

Let’s pray for a ranked mode in the future too, so we have more reasons to climb the ladder with or against our friends


The Minecraft franchise is also on the verge of getting a movie, making 2023 one of the most hectic years for the franchise. However, the film’s still far in the future since it’s aiming for an April 2025 release. With Jason Momoa as the lead actor, the wait might be well worth it for Minecraft fans.
