One of the purchasing options includes a deluxe edition of the game, which happens to include a "Deluxe Skin Pack." This means that Minecraft Legends could go down the same route as Minecraft Dungeons by monetizing skins and not officially allowing players to create their own. However, it is likely that Minecraft Legends may not see the addition of skin customization in its lifetime.

By allowing the player to create a character in the way they envision themselves, players can truly immerse themselves in the gameplay, mechanics, and story of the game they are playing. And while certainly not as substantial in terms of gameplay, skin customization allows for a level of self insertion that encourages immersion. It would also add variety to Minecraft Legends, as seeing the same skins over and over again in PvP may become dull. Games like The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim and even the original Minecraft owe much of their fame and longevity to community-made content such as mods. Small features like these could increase the longevity of Minecraft Legends by bolstering its community collaboration.įeatures that encourage interactions within a video game's community is what often keeps the player base active for long periods of time. Many would begin to adopt this style, often featuring faces of prominent figures or trending memes. His in-game skin was the image of the iconic drawing in the profile picture he uses for his various social media accounts. This was the case when the famous Minecraft YouTuber, Dream, suddenly rose to stardom. While many players create skins based on how they would like to look in-game, many tend to follow recent trends.


Skin customization would also allow for an aspect of the community to flourish, that being the culture that surrounds Minecraft skins. Premade skins lack the personality that a custom-made skin would because the player has no connection to it, unlike a skin that they could possibly create for themselves. While premade skins are made to roughly fit the personality and play style of certain types of players, custom-made skins allow players to create something that specifically suits them. However, the addition custom-made skins would serve a much more specific purpose that premade skins will simply not.

Players will have a selection of skins to choose from, just as players did with Minecraft Dungeons. With Minecraft Legends' release date being just in the horizon, it won't be long until players are enjoying the game.
