Fails WP:N and WP:CRYSTAL. From the creators, "Hopefully releasing within the next two months, this 2-years-in-development game will be bringing blocky simulation games to the next level." The prod was contested. SL93 (talk) 18:51, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - Minecraft 2 was an April fools' joke [1] [2], not an actual sequel to the game. I do not believe it meets any kind of notability standard. Grandmartin11 (talk) 19:06, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to Minecraft per above; wouldn't mind a very small section about the joke, but not necessary. Ansh666 21:45, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete Even the redirect doesn't make sense as while it was an April Fool's joke, it's not a reasonable search term. There's simply no Minecraft 2 even planned. --MASEM (t) 02:14, 20 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, if someone's out of the loop or perhaps wants info on the joke itself, they might search it. Redirects are WP:CHEAP, anyways. Ansh666 03:08, 20 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to Minecraft with a bit of rewrite. I play (but not rabidly) and I still hadn't heard of this joke. Fylbecatulous talk 03:01, 21 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delete as G3 hoax. Even if Mojang released that April Fool's statement, this stub doesn't reference it or even have similar information (and no other info is available)—classify as hoax. If someone wants to make a cheap redirect afterwards, I don't think it's necessary, but it could potentially deter future copycats. czar · · 19:14, 21 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
