Minecraft LIVE is back this weekend. Xbox Wire posted a September 24 reminder that Mojang’s showcase returns Saturday, September 26, 2026, lining up with the studio’s earlier date confirm. Regional start: 10:00 AM PT / 12:00 PM CT / 1:00 PM ET (7:00 PM CEST), per Times of India‘s rundown of Mojang’s timing. Watch on Minecraft.net, YouTube, and Twitch.

Why the timing matters

The broadcast sits three days ahead of Minecraft Dungeons II, which launches September 29, 2026. Coverage around the confirm expects a sizable chunk of the show to lean on the dungeon crawler — deeper looks and gameplay beyond the prior announcement trailer — plus vanilla Minecraft game-drop teases, behind-the-scenes segments, guests, and roadmap talk. A Deep Dig after-show is the typical Mojang follow-up format; treat feature specifics as expectation framing until the stream itself.

Soft context only

The latest Wilderness Bound game drop arrived about a week before the LIVE reminder window, so Mojang has room to tease what comes next without this package inventing winter drop names, new dimensions, or confirmed Dungeons II gameplay beats. Tune in Saturday at noon CT and let the stream do the announcing.
