Minecraft Championship (MCC) Twitch Rivals date and time 

The latest Minecraft Championship, otherwise known as MCC, will be taking place during the Twitch Rivals esports tournament, bringing together a collective of content creators as they battle each other in team-based minigames. The tournament, this time around, has been titled MCC Live and is a non-canon entry in the long-running competitive series surrounding the beloved sandbox game.

Details are still emerging about the upcoming Minecraft Championship entry, but a few tidbits of information have already come into focus. Moreover, the date and time have been confirmed for the competition, which is the first to take place with participants in physical attendance instead of being an online-only event.

Minecraft Championship Live at Twitchcon 2023 is still a few days away, so it isn't a bad time to review what is currently known about the event.

The final five teams should be announced on October 11, 2023, with the official Minecraft Championship X account divulging the first five on October 10. Fans should also note that this particular competition will take place across six minigames as opposed to the usual eight, likely due to the other competitive games taking place during Twitch Rivals.

Once October 20 or 21 arrives, fans can catch all of the MCC action via the official Twitch Rivals Twitch channel, which will showcase a ton of competitive gaming in addition to the Minecraft madness.
