Reason Minecraft Is Down by Liquid_ICE July 29, 2014 at 7:07 PM UTC

I have been looking around the Minecraft/Mojang twitter pages, and it seems they know what the problem is.

So, the Amazon hosting servers crashed, so did Google Play Store and Apple App Store.
I know it's little information but at least we know that the servers are going to be back up after a while.

The crashes aren't because 1.8 is being released (to our sadness).
It's because the servers on Amazon crashed and updates on the App Store didn't help.

I hope this helped!

                                            where they are keeping us all UP TO DATE!
Have a good evening UK!

I doubt it was because they were putting merch on Amazon... Amazon host the servers :P So it was probably a technical thing.

'It's because they were putting merch on Amazon' It has nothing to do with merch on amazon. The login servers are hosted on a amazon server.
