If you are a fan of Game of Thrones and Minecraft, you are sure to marvel at the awesome masterpiece which has re-created the world of Game of Thrones using Minecraft.
The project has been carried out by WestorusCraft and took a team of 100 people four months to create the Game of Thrones’ city of King’s Landing within Minecraft.
If you think this is impressive, the King’s Landing city is just a small part of the project which is hoping to re-create the world of realm of Westeros, within Minecraft.
The Ambitious Scope of WesterosCraft
The scope of the WesterosCraft project is nothing short of ambitious. While King’s Landing is a significant achievement, the team aims to recreate the entire continent of Westeros. This includes iconic locations such as Winterfell, the Wall, and Dragonstone. Each location is meticulously crafted to reflect the intricate details described in George R.R. Martin’s books and depicted in the HBO series. The project is not just about building structures; it’s about capturing the essence and atmosphere of the world of Westeros.
The team uses a combination of custom textures and mods to bring the world to life. For instance, the Red Keep in King’s Landing is adorned with banners and intricate designs that are unique to the Game of Thrones universe. The streets are bustling with market stalls, and the architecture reflects the medieval inspiration of the series. The attention to detail is so precise that even the Sept of Baelor, with its grandiose structure and stained glass windows, is recreated to perfection.
Community and Collaboration
One of the most remarkable aspects of WesterosCraft is the community and collaboration involved in the project. The team consists of volunteers from around the world, each bringing their unique skills and passion to the table. The project is organized through a dedicated server where builders can collaborate in real-time. This level of coordination ensures that the world of Westeros is consistent and true to the source material.
The community is also encouraged to participate in the project. Fans of both Minecraft and Game of Thrones can apply to join the team, contributing to the ongoing development of Westeros. This open invitation has led to a diverse group of contributors, each adding their unique touch to the project. The collaborative nature of WesterosCraft fosters a sense of camaraderie and shared purpose among its members.
