Minecraft has been around for over a decade now, if you can believe it, and while the game has received a lot of spin-offs, merchandise, and cross-overs, it never received an official TV show. Thanks to Netflix, that’ll soon be changing.
As announced with a cute teaser, the new Minecraft show will be animated and looks to replicate the visuals of the game. Check it out:

Technically this won’t be the first Minecraft product on Netflix as the platform received a modified version of Telltale Games’ Minecraft Story Mode a few years ago, though that wasn’t designed first and foremost to be a TV show. This isn’t the only Minecraft adaptation in the works, either, as a movie will be released next April featuring Jack Black as Steve.
As for the Netflix show, all we know is that it’s “coming soon”.
