🩁‘Lion King’ in Minecraft

CREATOR ECONOMY NEWSLETTER

Issue 56 | August 4, 2022

The creativity of Minecraft users is limitless and awe-inspiring, to say the least. They’ve recreated Westeros, landmarks, and even a working library dedicated to freedom of the press. Now, there’s a burgeoning theater scene that holds in-game productions of various plays and musicals, including Disney’s Lion King musical. ORGG Studios’ Minecraft version of the Lion King is an immersive trip from arrival to departure. Passionfruit contributor Steven Asarch gives a walkthrough of the theatergoing experience, from arriving at the venue to the details of the show.
