Minecraft’s creator excluded from event over his ‘comments and opinions’

Microsoft says “comments and opinions” from Minecraft creator Markus Persson, better known as Notch, have led the company to exclude him from an upcoming event celebrating the game’s 10th anniversary. Persson left Mojang, Minecraft’s developer, when he sold the company to Microsoft in 2014, and he hadn’t been actively developing the game for several years at that point. After some of Persson’s more recent comments, Microsoft updated Minecraft to remove a few references to him that sometimes popped up on the game’s main screen.
