— “Minecraft Legends is a serviceable introduction to the real-time strategy genre. The charm of its IP shines throughout and elevates the game from merely mediocre, however, there’s an underlying lack of substance to the game that prevents it from standing out. Fans of Minecraft and those wanting a gentle introduction to a tricky genre will find plenty to enjoy here, but unfortunately, this game is far from legendary.”

— Switch Player

— “Minecraft Legends is a surprisingly deep strategy title that embodies what people love about the franchise, adding much more along the way.”

— GodisaGeek

— “Minecraft Legends, at least on Switch, is an average game at very best, but frustrating controls, terrible AI, and repetitive gameplay all come together to make for something that feels substantially beneath the quality of the Minecraft brand.”
