The replies to the stunning Minecraft tower saw plenty of praise from fans, as well as some insight into how the creator crafted the massive structure. The user shared their method for creating the surrounding circles within the re-creation of Lumiose City, using a pixel art program to get the layout for the city before copying it by hand.

Pokemon Legends Z-A is currently expected to be released sometime in 2025.

Pokemon Unite also revealed three new characters coming to the game, alongside updates to Pokemon GO, Pokemon Cafe Remix, and Pokemon Sleep. The stunning Minecraft rendition of Prism Tower pairs perfectly with fans' newfound excitement for the next chapter in the series.

Minecraft is a game made up of blocks, creatures, and community. You can survive the night or build a work of art – the choice is all yours. But if the thought of exploring a vast new world all on your own feels overwhelming, then fear not!

Minecraft has no set goal and can be played however you’d like! This is why it’s sometimes called a “sandbox game” – there are lots of things for you to do, and lots of ways that you can play. If you like being creative, then you can use the blocks to build things from your imagination. If you’re feeling brave, you can explore the world and face daring challenges. Blocks can be broken, crafted, placed to reshape the landscape, or used to build fantastical creations. 

Creatures can be battled or befriended, depending on how you play. The world of Minecraft allows for epic adventures, quiet meditations, and everything in between. You can even share your creations with other players, or play in community worlds!
