Long before it became a Microsoft-owned international phenomenon, with its iconic characters appearing on everything from lanyards to lunch boxes,Minecraftwas just another obscure indie PC title released with relatively little fanfare.

In a new post on r/Minecraft that quickly racked up over 1,000 upvotes, Redditor KraftyKreeper shared a picture of every version ofMinecraftreleased thus far gathered together for one epic group photo. The impressive photo features the Java and Bedrock versions of the game running side-by-side on a computer monitor, a nearby cellphone and tablet each running their respective mobile version of the title, and a collection of console cases for the various retail releases ofMinecraft. Seeing all the versions of Mojang’s smash-hit sandbox title gathered together in one place helps to illustrate just how wide of a reachMinecrafthas established in the world of gaming.
While it’s usuallyMinecraftfan artor interesting builds that draw the most attention on the r/Minecraft subreddit, this photo of the various versions of the hit title quickly caught the attention of the game’s legion of fans. Joking about the size and breadth of the carefully curated collection, one response jokingly stated that “I figured out howMinecraftis the top-selling game in the world.” Other comments pointed out that the post was at least slightly misleading, as the photo didn’t include copies of the game released for Raspberry Pi and the impressively small-in-sizeMinecraft 4K. Poking a bit of fun at KraftyKreeper’s impressive collection, one commenter quipped that “I thought I had a problem for buyingSkyrimfive times!”
Featuring multiple releases spanning not only several generations of consoles but also numerous hardware and software platforms, KraftyKreeper’sMinecraftcollection is sure to be a subject of envy for some long-time franchise fans. With so many editions of the game available to play, maybe their next project can be to check ifall ofMinecraft’s block typeswork correctly across the various ports.
