Mojang is the Swedish studio behind Minecraft, one of the best-selling video games in history. Founded by Markus Persson and known for its block-based sandbox gameplay, Mojang built a franchise that spans gaming, education, and community-driven modding. In 2014 the studio became part of Microsoft, but it continues to support and evolve the Minecraft family across platforms.
On this site Mojang appears with three entries: Minecraft (the core game), Minecraft Education (a classroom-tailored edition), and Minecraft Education Preview (early access for educators and administrators). The company maintains dedicated support channels (help.mojang.com) and provides contact for educational editions through [email protected]. Mojang’s work emphasizes player creativity, community features, and educational use cases—its Education offerings add classroom-friendly tools, lesson plans, and management controls to the core experience.
Notable achievements include establishing Minecraft as a cultural phenomenon with millions of active players, widespread adoption of Minecraft in schools for teaching subjects like coding and history, and a sustained update pipeline that keeps the platform relevant across consoles, PC, and mobile. Mojang’s portfolio on this site reflects both entertainment and practical classroom applications, making it a recognizable developer for players and educators alike.
