Here's when Minecraft Legends unlocks for launch

Mojang's newest spinoff game Minecraft Legends is launching this week, bringing a blend of action and strategy to the Overworld. You'll be commanding small armies of creepers, skeletons, and other Minecraft creatures to battle against hordes of piglins in a solo campaign, in co-op, or even in PvP strategy matches online.

Once you jump in, you'll want to figure out how to get gold in Minecraft Legends and where to find diamonds in Minecraft Legends too. Whether you're planning to go it alone or queue up for some competitive play, you'll want to know when you can actually jump into the game.
