While waiting for new updates, Minecraft players can score some savings in the New Year’s Sale, which discounts several user-created add-ons in the Minecraft marketplace. The sale is live through January 7, 2025, at 10:00 AM PT, so fans still have a few weeks left to save on content and select Character Creator items.
