Long before the metaverse became the premier destination for tech companies as well as newlyweds there was Minecraft. It is a platform that started as a video game about dodging explosions from cactus-like creatures and became the blank canvas on which millions of gamers create content upload it, and generate trillions of views literally. Today, YouTube, in collaboration with Minecraft developer Mojang is celebrating the trillionth view (trillion with a T) with a timeline of the game's remarkable and transformative history on the platform.



Minecraft's chief storyteller Lydia Winters credits the game's trillion views and admiration for the variety of ways Minecraft players share their stories to Minecraft.



She tells The Verge that there are people who are in search of adventure, people who build, and people who play together. All of these types of playing are crucial to her. As Minecraft's chief storyteller, her team's task is to create and create a world players would like to build in. That enabling of all kinds of storytelling has been critical to Minecraft's unstoppable popularity.



She states that YouTube videos are a great method of telling stories, and Minecraft is so popular on YouTube. "So that's why when you have Minecraft and you are able to tell any story you want in the Minecraft world, it's a big reason why we have so many people creating Minecraft content."



"All these methods of playing are important to us"



According to the numbers According to the figures, Minecraft's YouTube channel is home to more than 35,000 creators from over 150 countries. The type of content available that is available on YouTube ranges from simple role-playing "Let's Plays" to videos that don't contain any actual gameplay from Minecraft at all.



Earnest Pettie, culture and trends insights lead at YouTube is responsible for keeping track of all the weird and bizarre ways that users use Minecraft on the site. He is fascinated by a certain creator who uses the Minecraft aesthetic and is well-known in the Minecraft community even though he has never played the game.



Petite says that animation is among the most popular trends in Minecraft. It can be made with Minecraft or derived from the Minecraft aesthetic. "Jake Fellman is a YouTube creator who makes short films. He's made about 100 Minecraft-inspired shorts that are actually computer animation. He's one of the most popular Minecraft creators this year."



Fellman's videos are fifteen-second bursts of hyper-realistic "What if Minecraft graphics were rendered using the Unreal Engine 5" shorts which feature adorable interactions with sheep or monsters and get over one million views per day.

YouTube offers a fascinating overview of the history of YouTube over the last 11 years. It contains stats, graphs, and facts about how YouTube reached 1 trillion views.



It's fascinating to observe how the the genres of Minecraft videos change over time as they fade out of popularity. The multi-million-view hits in Minecraft's beginnings were parodies of music videos by Minecraft famous characters like CaptainSparklez. Dream, who recently was awarded the Game Award for content creators of the year, is now the top-rated Minecraft player thanks to his Minecraft manhunt series. The series shows his friends trying to stop his advancement.



Minecraft is the most popular game on YouTube ever. It was played more than 200 billion times by the year 2020. Second place, which was a bit oddly Roblox (another sandbox-style video game), earned less than half that. A large part of that unstoppable popularity is due to Minecraft's very nature. It's an open, vast space that is able to allow endless development and repetition. This is something no other video game can boast of. Another reason according to Pettie, is the community aspect.



He claims, "One trillion views isn't feasible without the ingenuity of the creators and the many creators who have uploaded Minecraft videos over time."
