Minecraft Legends PvP

Will Minecraft Legends Have PvP? – Answered

Time to become a real legend

Being a tactical strategy game, Minecraft Legends is quite different from previous Mojang titles. Various elements like enemies, buildings and weapons are still here but presented in a very unique fashion. But very much like other Minecraft titles, the multiplayer feature is still a core of its identity. But considering this game’s nature, is it feasible to expect some Player versus Player action in the final product?

Will Minecraft Legends Have PvP? – Answered

Yes, Minecraft Legends does have PvP. Contrary to what you may think at first, it’s not a small feature but a fully fleshed-out mode with quite some depth. Mojang dropped a video showcasing some clips from PvP gameplay a few months ago, complete with interviews talking about the mode.

PvP happens in generated worlds as a 4v4 team match where players must manage their resources, tame wild creatures, build/enhance their fortress and fend off the wandering Piglins (a neutral threat in this mode) before finally engaging into direct confront against the opposing team.

Be sure to watch for potential traps and enemies hiding in plain sight when making a full-front assault. You can use the various mobs and creatures you’ve tamed around the map to be your frontline, keeping actual players at a safe distance to avoid a premature loss in a decisive moment.

Changing strategies along the way is essential to ensure victory. Sometimes a slow but tactical approach is better than simply storming the castles, while brute force might just be exactly what you need to conquer your foes in a match. Being able to adapt and respond can draw a thin line between victory and defeat.

There’s still a regular PvE mode with a full story mode and all, but you can keep the action going with/against your pals in PvP whenever you want. So start grabbing your resources and get ready to fight!
