p>Minecraft has been updated to pay tribute to the streamer Technoblade who passed away from cancer was announced by his family last week. The Minecraft splash image in the game's launcher shows the pig wearing a golden crown. This is a tribute to Technoblade's Minecraft character. It's a regal pig-man with a crown that is bejeweled. https://www.strongcraft.org/ </p>

p>The tweet on Friday from the Minecraft team revealed that they were "heartbroken" by the death of Technoblade and that he "brought such joy to the game community."

p>We've been trying to find the words but we're all devastated by the loss of Technoblade. He was a great friend to our community and brought so many joy. He will be greatly missed.

p>Technoblade was a hugely popular Minecraft streamer with more than 13 million users on YouTube?, and was part of the popular server Dream SMP. Technoblade's father sent a message from Technoblade and discussed the work involved in making the final video, because Technoblade was fighting cancer. The video has been watched more than 54 million times as of writing.

p>Tributes to Technoblade have poured in from other streamers and members of the Minecraft creator community. Many fanart pieces were also posted to Twitter in memory of Technoblade during the past days.

p>Although the Minecraft team hasn’t yet acknowledged the splash screen update, it evidently made this minor change as a tribute. Although the original launcher picture still shows an ox in the same location however, it doesn't have the trademark crown of Technoblade.
