Since 2016, the Fast & the Furious co-stars Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Vin Diesel have been bouncing back and forth in what was infamously dubbed the “Candy-Ass Feud,” reportedly stemming from “differing philosophies” on the production of the action movie franchise. Well, it seems like things have finally chilled out for the two muscle bound stars. The Candy-Ass Feud appears to have been patched up, according to a recent Instagram post from the Rock.

In an Instagram video posted Friday, Johnson took a break from working out to voice his appreciation for the success of Hobbs & Shaw, the Furious spin-off movie starring Johnson’s Luke Hobbs and Jason Statham’s Deckard Shaw. After some pleasantries, Johnson turned the subject to Diesel.

Minecraft Earth is a game of huge ambition. Its creators want nothing less than to bring the creativity and fun of the classic Minecraft experience into the real world, at full scale. The idea is that not only will people get the chance to interact with virtual Minecraft scenarios overlaid on actual locations, but that eventually the game will become a showcase for people’s imaginations; a way to transform hum drum reality into something magical.

Getting there, however, is going to take time and overcoming a whole host of obstacles. Minecraft Earth has been in development for a year and a half at this point, but is still at a relatively formative stage – it boasts some impressive tech, but also has its share of bugs and teething problems. And to truly improve the game, Minecraft Earth needs to go large. It needs an army of people helping to add detail to its OpenStreetMap-based depiction of the world, and it needs to inventory and precisely locate an immense number of real world objects to better anchor virtual play spaces. (More on that in a bit.)

After a couple of months in closed beta, Minecraft Earth is now about to start rolling out in Early Access on Android and iOS, which means millions more people can have a taste of building and adventuring in augmented reality. It’s an important step for the game, given its overworld map is crowdsourced (via OpenStreetMap) as is its ability to accurately place digital play spaces in actual locations (via Azure Spatial Anchors).

Early Access is also exciting because it’s the public debut of Adventures – small slices of Minecraft played solo or with friends in real-world locations. I was actually able to play a couple of these ahead of time and you can read my impressions here. During the same event I also got the chance to chat with Minecraft’s creative director Saxs Persson, who really laid out his vision for not just Minecraft Earth, but for Minecraft too. Here are 18 things you may not know, from Saxs himself…

The celebration of all things Minecraft, MineCon, kicked off today and brought with it the announcement of Minecraft: Builders & Biomes, a new tabletop game based on Minecraft and developed in conjunction with Mojang.

All September long, IGN is highlighting the best TV coming your way in the 2019-2020 season. Today we’re featuring The Mandalorian, Disney’s first foray into a live-action Star Wars TV series, and one of the inaugural shows of the ambitious Disney+ streaming service launching on November 12. Created by Jon Favreau and set five years after the events of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, The Mandalorian follows the travails of a lone gunfighter in the outer reaches of the galaxy, far from the authority of the New Republic. We spoke to director and executive producer Dave Filoni about making his live-action directorial debut on the show, and what he learned from working on fan-favorite animated Star Wars series like The Clone Wars and Rebels that he applied to “Mando.” Plus, get a first look inside The Mandalorian’s ship, the Razor Crest, with our exclusive new photo.
