Hey Everyone, hive has been not doing well lately over the past couple months because of no communication over the mm update. So today i have some info of what is really going on and what could be causing setbacks for release and more.
it’s been 5 months of development so far with this update and there has been no transparency of what’s going on with it. The only thing they said about it 2 weeks ago is that there introducing challenges including a challenge merchant which will grant players exclusive rewards and there would be an LTM. But we already knew this information.
I do think hive is doing a 2023 styled approach with this update. Where they just randomly drop it just like they did with Gravity in 2023. But i do think soon hive will add some new small details of what’s to come but then reveal bigger stuff like new gamemodes and the LTM once the update releases.
They could be recoding some of the classic game mode as well to enhance gameplay. They do say in the Buzz newsletter “big changes for Murder Mystery are in the works” although i’m not exactly saying this means a whole recode of the game or they could just be meaning the new game modes that are coming but this is more of a theory.
Another reason i believe for this update to be treated this way has to do with Skyblock Horizons. They have said there goal is to release it this Summer. And summer is almost over so they may be putting more resources into skyblock horizons to meet that goal which may be slowing down some development. However i don’t think there is too much to finish up at the moment with the update. As finishing up some maps and designs so i still think we are very close to it’s release.
Given we are about in the middle of July we may see this update release in Early to mid August. Although i wish to say it was this month but unless hive finally speaks up this week we could still see this update release in the end of the month. Someone has told me they think it would release next week but i don’t really see that happening but i am considering this prediction to happen.
Based on this possible Delay looks like Bedwars Season 3 would be coming within late September.
Don’t expect me to know everything hive has going on but i am actively digging into hive internally to find information and not everything is true as some things i have reported have been accurate but given many things i have gotten right as a source consider this information as a grain of salt. See you all next week!
