IIRC, Microsoft paid 5 billion USD for Mojang several years ago now. They’ve added tons of mtx to bedrock (and neglected Java because it’s harder to monetize I guess)
Then there’s story mode and dungeons.
But 5 billion is/was a lot. Do you think they’ve brought in that much since taking over?
Mojang has made them two new games to expand on the current IP. This cash cow will still be providing milk when I’m dead. As other’s have said, I’ll state more boldly: Minecraft is Mickey Mouse.
