Changelog

It's BedWars... but this time it's personal! Early access is now available for Hive+ and Ultimate members and will run for 24 hours. The mode will open to all players once this period ends.

Are you ready to duel? Get ready to face off against a single rival in the ultimate BedWars showdown. Protect your bed at all costs, and outbuild, outwit, and outplay your opponent to claim the ultimate bragging rights!

BedWars: Duels launches with two modes, Solos and Duos, and six familiar maps:

• Aero

• Atlantis

• Castle

• Cityscape

• Library

• Mushroom

Developer note: On launch, BedWars: Duels mirrors the gameplay of the regular BedWars modes. We’d love to hear your thoughts about changes you’d like to see to make Duels unique. If you have ideas, be sure to share them by filling out the BedWars feedback form!

We know some of you will be disappointed to see Cosmic Clash vaulted. LTMs give us the space to experiment with new ideas, and while this one didn't find the audience we hoped for, it may return in some form in the future.

Huge updates have arrived for one of our most popular games!

Build Battle features its own dedicated microhub, a new limited-time mode, and a fresh set of levels and cosmetics to unlock!

Speed Builders LTM

Introducing Speed Builders, a brand new limited-time mode!

In this fast-paced building showdown, you’ll race against other players to recreate builds as quickly and accurately as possible.

You'll earn points for every correctly placed block, but be careful… the player with the fewest correctly placed blocks will be eliminated at the end of each round. The last player standing wins!

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug where the progress for quests where players must place x number of blocks would be awarded during the game

A brand new limited-time mode has been released!

In this brand-new LTM, you’ll become iconic Minecraft mobs and inherit their unique characteristics! Each mob comes with its own special abilities, movement speed, and more.

All players start as the same mob and must get an elimination with all of the ten mobs to win.

Developer note: MobGame was an idea we had for Hive-o-ween 2024, but other projects took priority, meaning we couldn’t finish it in time. However, we still wanted to release the game so we could gather your feedback. As this is a public test, the mode will only be around for 2 weeks. If the game is received well, it may return in 2025.
