Google is joining Minecraft's 15th-anniversary celebration with the unveiling of a special Easter egg for fans, continuing its tradition of surprising gamers. Previously, Google collaborated with different games to commemorate anniversaries, releases, and notable events; for example, a Google Splatoon Easter egg enabled users to splatter ink on their search results, mirroring the actions of Inklings and Octolings in the game.
This time, Google is celebrating Minecraft with an enjoyable Easter egg, seamlessly integrating elements of the game into your search results. When you search for "Minecraft" on Google, a small dirt block from the game emerges at the bottom of the screen. Clicking on it will reveal Minecraft Steve's arm, allowing you to click areas with the plus icon (+) on the screen to chip away at the search results window, just like mining blocks in Minecraft. This Easter egg includes the game's sound effects, adding to the amusement and authenticity of the experience.
After you clear the search results by clicking on them repeatedly, they are replaced by little windows into Minecraft's world. You might see cherry blossom trees, cliffs, and different types of stone. Clicking on them lets you destroy individual blocks, just like in the game. You will receive a pickaxe once mining enough blocks.
Minecraft 15th anniversary is a major event for both the game and its community. To mark the occasion, Minecraft is offering free items to its players.
Minecraft's future shines brightly, with ongoing updates keeping the game fresh even after many years. Its success extends beyond the core game, with numerous spin-offs, products, and collaborations launched over time. While nothing is set in stone, players will probably continue to delight in Minecraft for another 15 years.
