Popular creator ibxtoycat spotted September 26 listed for the event in what looks like an accidental early reveal limited to UK English. The community is already reacting to the timing just days after the next game drop lands.

Minecraft fans woke up to an early Christmas present on September 13 when ibxtoycat dropped a screenshot straight from Bedrock Edition. The in game event calendar plainly lists Minecraft Live on September 26. The entry does not appear in other localizations which the creator immediately flagged as an accidental slip.
The timing makes sense. Wilderness Bound launches on the 15th. Minecraft Dungeons II follows on the 29th. Sticking a Live event in between lets Mojang capitalize on momentum and lay out what comes next for the four drop per year schedule.
What to expect
- First look at the fourth 2026 game drop
- Expanded Minecraft Dungeons II gameplay and features
- Possible experimental mechanics or new biomes teased for 2027
- The usual mix of community spotlights and creator announcements
Minecraft Bedrock just revealed the date of minecraft live: It’s the 26th of september!
The reaction online has been overwhelmingly positive. After the polished but somewhat predictable Wilderness Bound rollout players are hungry for surprises and a concrete look at what the team is cooking for next year. The fact that the date leaked through Bedrock rather than an official blog post only adds to the grassroots excitement.
Mark your calendars for September 26. Unless Mojang pulls it forward or denies the leak entirely that is when the next chapter of Minecrafts annual road map gets revealed. In the meantime the community will be dissecting every other calendar entry for more hints.
