8-bitCraft is a resource pack and new addition to the Minecraft “family” that was released less than a few months ago at the time of this writing. The surprising thing about this pack is that it's already getting a lot of praise, good reviews and downloads, which is unusual for this kind of release unless they're extremely good, so judging by what we've seen so far, 8-bit resource pack should be excellent. Another great thing to mention is that this resource pack is developed with simplicity in mind and has been designed to keep the art style that makes the game so popular and to give Minecraft a brand new fresh look and stunning visuals elements that attract new and old school players. Not only did 8-bitCraft surprise us with all these amazing reviews on the day of its launch, but another thing that surprised us is the fact that this pack doesn't really focus that much on texture details.

Instead, the developers decided to take a different approach, ditching the textures and giving players a stunning game world that's actually a treat for the eyes, rather than just another shoddy resource pack that tries too hard and makes players feel like there's too much going on . Now, if you're familiar with our previous posts, you know we're no strangers to praising decks that aren't afraid to step up and really do something with textures, but 8-bitCraft is definitely special because they've done such an amazing job with noise that it's in practically imperceptible to their textures. To make it even better, all of these incredible visuals above are tied together with a dynamic color palette that takes everything to a whole other level. 8-bitCraft is actually 8x lower resolution compared to other 16x packs, which is certainly great news for all of us with low-end machines, as it allows us to use this source pack without any lag and frame rate drops.
8-bitCraft should be compatible with all of these Minecraft versions: 1.14.4 – 1.14.3 – 1.14.2 – 1.14 – 1.13.2 – 1.13.1 – 1.13
