The Opportunity Roundup #27

Wraithzeon 1 August, 2025 2 min read

Looking to get involved with a Minecraft event or project?  Here’s some of the latest opportunities…


Find an event or server to play…

Roster applications are open for Showdown.  This is a minigame tournament that has been on hiatus since October 2023, and has since been recoded from the ground up – including new games and new features, as well as the return of pre-hiatus classics.  The date of the re-debut event has not yet been announced.  Applications are open here and will close on Tuesday (5th August).

Applications are open for the next episode of The Quiz LIVE, a Minecraft trivia gameshow.  The episode will be taking place on Saturday 23rd August at 5pm BST / 12pm EDT.  You can apply on their website here, with applications closing on Saturday (9th August).

Isle To Glory also has applications open, for their MCC Island tournament in collaboration with Bound To Rise.  The event will take place on Friday 8th August starting at 9pm BST / 4pm EDT.  Sign-ups are open here and will close tomorrow (2nd August).

Gummy Studios, which makes in-game Minecraft movies, is recruiting voice actors to appear in their films.  The interest check form is open here.

Blissful Studios is looking for builders and playtesters for their minigame tournament, Blissful Championship.

Saiiren is looking for builders for a Cobblemon roleplay server she’s launching in November.  Builders must be experienced in building on a large scale, and be able to build without using a tutorial.  If interested, you can reply to this X post with examples of your previous building work.

CosmicMess is looking for builders to work on an autumnal SMP inspired by Over The Garden Wall and Stardew Valley.  If interested you can reach out via this X post.
