Minecraft's player count continues to climb on its upward trend Updated: Jun 9, 2020 How many Minecraft players do you know? Minecraft might just be the biggest game played in the world in the present, and the most recent player counts indicate that it's bigger than nearly every country in the world. It's no surprise that Minecraft has reached a number of milestones on it's 11th anniversary this year. There were over 200 million copies of Minecraft sold in May 2020, which is an increase of 24 million copies from the previous year. It's been a big year so far for Minecraft as it has seen the release of Minecraft Earth and the launch of Mojang's standalone action-RPG, Minecraft Dungeons. The Minecraft open-world Minecraft game that we love isn't slowing down. There's been an increase in players each year, with frequent updates such as the Minecraft Nether update and new biomes, new blocks, and mobs. The problem is that players seem to be out of ideas. There are many incredible Minecraft creations, such as Minecraft Hogwarts and Minecraft house designs. How many people are playing Minecraft? How many Minecraft players are there? Mojang's studio director, Helen Chiang says in a blog post as she takes a look at the last year of Minecraft in which 126 million people are playing Minecraft every month. This is an increase from the 112 million active monthly users in September 2019, which was reported in an interview with Helen Chiang and Business Insider. What we've observed is that it's a game players are always returning to, says Chiang. It may not be the most popular, since there are a lot of great games, but it's one that players love to return to. Between the traditional paid sales around the world and registered accounts for the free-to-play version of the game in China, Minecraft's reached the 480 million mark in 2019.The major portion of that comes from the Chinese version, which was released in 2017 and has gained more than 300 million players, as analyst Daniel Ahmad notes on Twitter. The paid version has been downloaded over 180 million times across the globe. This combined sales would make Minecraft the third largest country in the world, following China and India. There's no indication of Minecraft 2 on the horizon however, if the initial game continues as it is there's no need for one.
