2025 Year in Review

Another year comes to a close as 2026 begins! 2025 has been an especially interesting year for Minecraft – it was the first of entirely "game drops" and no major update, and A Minecraft Movie finally released. Through it all we editors have been hard at work documenting all the features and happenings on the Minecraft Wiki, and an incredible amount of readers have been checking it out. Read on to find out exactly what has changed with the wiki throughout the year.

Traffic statistics

The Minecraft Wiki had more than 330 million views for the year, with our biggest peaks in traffic coming in March–April and December. The first was clearly caused by the combination of Minecraft Live, Spring to Life releasing, and A Minecraft Movie, a busy time for the series. The second seems to have been a gradual rise in excitement for Mounts of Mayhem ending off in a great peak.

It’s been an active year for the wonderful editors keeping our wiki updated!
