The new series of “Minecraft: Story Mode” will be set in the world of Minecraft, but it will feature an original story that combines new characters with familiar themes. It is driven by player choice. It will be a separate standalone product.
The decision to make the new game community-driven is potentially brilliant. It’s interesting that feedback from the community is going to be brought into Minecraft: Story Mode. In a way, it echoes what Minecraft is. It is a user-generated world.
It’s likely that there already have been gamers on Minecraft fan blogs. They have come up with theories as to how the universe was created. There could be lots of contradictory things there. But from a marketing standpoint, it makes all the sense in the world for the community of “you guys are going to write this.”
Minecraft first came out in 2009 and is probably due for an evolution of some sort. Story Mode seems like a natural next step. A dedicated fan base has very high expectations. It will be satisfied with the story it is developing.
There will be challenges, however. Minecraft does not follow what the game industry is used to working with. It will be a completely different development scenario. It is a world with no story and starting from the beginning. As long as the Minecraft story is popular and successful, that might be OK.
