“Most of society views video games as a juvenile pastime. Yet, we believe video games, especially ones like Minecraft, are an art form,” says Creative Director and co-Founder of Higround, Rustin Sotoodeh. “Minecraft's gameplay spawned a generation of creatives who, for the first time, were able to architect houses or design clothes at an early age. Our collaboration with Minecraft shows the world that side of games—the creative side.”

The Higround x Minecraft collection will be available for purchase on May 29 at 12 PM PT, providing gamers with the opportunity to bring the iconic artwork of Minecraft into their gaming spaces. For more information and updates on the release, visit Higround.co.
