Minecraft, a popular game that was closed by Microsoft

Minecraft was created by Markus Persson and developed by video game studio Mojang. It was released on May 17, 2009 under the name Cave Game.. The video game has since gained widespread popularity due to its unique graphical style and mechanics that allow users to use their creativity to create almost anything.

In September 2014 Microsoft acquired Mojang and Minecraft which helped the game gain even greater popularity. In fact, Microsoft’s purchase allowed Minecraft to expand to new platforms beyond PC. Today, Minecraft is one of the best-selling games in history and also has one of the largest gaming communities in the world.
