Xbox's new "Minecraft" Corfe Castle Reimagine challenge is now recreating historical ruins. For the past years, many content creators have used the popular block-building game to rebuild popular places.
Some of them were able to rebuild even the castles in the iconic movies, such as "Harry Potter." Now, Microsoft announced that they partnered with The National Trust, a heritage charity and membership organization.
"We have partnered with the National Trust, Europe's largest conservation charity, to create a unique Minecraft build of Corfe Castle, in Dorset," said Microsoft via its official press release.
