This week we were talking about the huge success of Minecraft and its 126 million players every month, but the success of the game goes far beyond the simple games with friends in the evening or on weekends. Some players are absolutely passionate about the construction and the almost endless possibilities of the game.

Greenfield. This is the name of this huge city that is perhaps the biggest project ever created in Minecraft. Started in 2011, Greenfield will go into version 0.5.3 on May 31 and already has more than 20 million blocks where each one represents 1 square meter.

It's simple, Greenfield was built like a real big city like Los Angeles. So there are skyscrapers, a suburb, shantytowns, factories, railways or a metro. It is also completely modeled in the underground down to the smallest details.

As Rockpapershotgun indicates , 400 people for 9 years were necessary to achieve this result, with a management team of 10 people to distribute the tasks.

According to NJDaeger, one of the 5 server administrators, almost every building has a fully detailed interior, with regular inspections to verify that everything has a functional interior when construction is complete. There is a complete workflow system for developing new neighborhoods, building codes to keep style and consistency for all builders working in the city, and regular staff meetings on Discord to coordinate it all. Yes, it's huge.

Greenfield is a giant city, but this titanic work is also underway throughout the outer part of the city where many builders are preparing the new buildings, and preparing the ground for the future. Because Greenfield is only 20% complete for the moment!
