That’s not all, though. All the merchandise at the Minecraft store is also on sale, with up to 25% off! Go on, get that giant Creeper plush you’ve always wanted. You deserve it. You can browse the Minecraft store here.

In other Minecraft anniversary news, Microsoft have released Minecraft Classic, which runs right in your browser. It contains everything from just 32 blocks to all the original Minecraft bugs, so you can feel like you’re back in 2009 again.
