Another Roadmap Leaked?

In recent weeks, a roadmap outlining the year ahead for Minecraft was leaked. While the legitimacy of the first leak remains uncertain, a second roadmap has surfaced, potentially providing more detailed insights into what’s to come. Let’s break down the key highlights.

Q1: Exciting Developments on the Horizon

The leaked roadmap mentions an event tied to the Dallas, Texas location of the Minecraft Experience. However, the first roadmap instead referred to “Expansion,” and it’s worth noting that in Q3, the roadmap mentions a new Minecraft Experience in Boise, Idaho. Interestingly, a cape tied to the Idaho location has already appeared in the marketplace.

While the exact plans for the Texas location are unclear, it’s possible we might see an announcement about the Idaho expansion during Q1. Additionally, a Hello Kitty collaboration has been confirmed, aligning with the roadmap’s predictions. Below that, there’s an image of new pig variants, accompanied by the word “twigs,” which could hint at a themed release called “Pigs and Twigs.”

Q2: Movies, Capes, and the Next Update

Moving into Q2, the roadmap highlights the Minecraft Movie, which is already in development. There’s also an image featuring three capes, although the accompanying text is obscured by a watermark, leaving its purpose speculative. This could hint at a new cape release.

Minecraft Live is also scheduled for this quarter, with the roadmap teasing the Friendly Fables Update reveal—possibly the name of the next major content drop.

Q3: New Experiences and the End Update?

Q3 brings more mentions of the Minecraft Experience, likely signaling the official opening of the Boise, Idaho location. The roadmap includes an image of the Idaho-themed cape, further supporting this timeline.

However, the most intriguing detail is an image of a dragon head, paired with the words Soaring Skies Update Release. This strongly suggests a potential End Dimension update, something fans have long anticipated. If true, this could be one of the most exciting developments of the year.

Q4: A New Game and Festive Updates

The final quarter of the year could bring even bigger surprises. The roadmap hints at a new game titled Minecraft Dungeons: Spicewood. While the “Spicewood” part seems plausible, the “Dungeons” branding feels unlikely given that the original Dungeons team has moved on. Speculation suggests this could be a mobile game, and its official reveal may happen during this period.

Additionally, a possible Fortnite collaboration is mentioned, potentially tied to the Minecraft Movie. Another Minecraft Live event is slated for September, teasing the Festive Frolics Update Reveal, which would bring a Christmas-themed update to the game.

Final Thoughts

While some of this information is confirmed, much of it remains speculative. As with any leak, take this roadmap with a grain of salt. However, if these leaks hold true, 2025 is shaping up to be an exciting year for Minecraft fans worldwide.
