Lichthund’s arcade-style spear thrower, Lichtspeer, made its debut on PC and the PlayStation 4 a little over a year ago. It was a single-player only affair that had you hurl “speers” of “licht” at Hipster Ice Giants, Viking Penguins, and more.

Microsoft and Mojang have made good on the promise from E3 2017 that Minecraft would become a cross-platform gaming experience. With the “Better Together” update, players from mobile, Xbox One, and Windows 10 platforms can all play together.
