Minecraft

Minecraft is a video game released in 2011 that uses a "sandbox" approach to world-building and gameplay with block-shaped characters. As one of the best-selling video games in history with hundreds of millions of players, the franchise also includes several spin-offs, tie-in novels, merchandise, and holds in-person conventions for its fans. Minecraft has also been used as an educational tool, and its developer, Mojang Studios, has used the platform to partner with other licenses for in-game live events.

* To promote the Electric Mayhem's new album in The Muppets Mayhem, record producer Nora Singh books the band to play a live concert in the virtual world of Minecraft in the episode "Virtual Insanity." With the help of Clark the Mo-Cap Maestro, band members wear motion capture suits and take the stage with millions of viewers in attendance. Before their set begins, they're attacked by groups of superfans who were offended by the band's tweets in a sequence where they're bombed with Minecraft TNT and the virtual world becomes dark with storm clouds set to the music of Carmina Burana. Eventually, Janice interrupts the assault with a strum of her guitar that sends a rainbow shockwave into the mob, turning their weapons of war into flowers. The band joins in and unites the crowd with a performance of "We Are One."
