Hello, everyone! We at Team Visionary hope that you’ve had a great week. Today, we have a spectacular list of the newest and best Minecraft minigame maps of January 2021 for you guys. 

Minecraft is a lot of things to a lot of people: for some, it’s a fun and casual pastime; for some, it’s a career and full-time job. Some players live for the adrenaline rush of competing against other players in heated, bloody battles. Others might spend their Minecraft days tilling away at wheat fields, and their nights huddled in cozy little farmhouses. 

For the community of creative content creators, however, this wonderful game and its flexibility is nothing less than their own personal universe, a platform to build and create where the sky’s the limit (and sometimes not even then). Minigame maps are the perfect example of this, where content creators manage to take a game based in open-world survival and turn them into all sorts of creative gamemodes: parkour, survival games, PvP, mafia-based and other genres that you can enjoy with your friends.

Without further ado, let’s get into things!
