Have you guys seen the iconic Petronas Twin Towers, 'Minecraft' version?

You've got to see it!

University student Yusri Haneef along with two fellow gamers - Yu Yi Hao and another player known by the username Ivine123 - created a replica of the iconic Petronas Twin Towers in the game.

Malay Mail reported that Yusri and his friends spent four days constructing the landmark in the sandbox video game, in which players can mine raw materials and build custom structures or earthworks.

The Minecraft version of the Petronas Twin Towers is part of their contribution towards the Build The Earth (BTE) project, a worldwide effort by players to recreate a scale replica of our planet in the game.

More buildings to come

“The BTE project focuses on a perfect recreation of the Earth in Minecraft on a one-to-one scale (one metre equals one block in-game) so we needed to take into account every measurement including height, length, decoration, number of floors, and lighting.

“Google Maps alone was not enough to be a reference when recreating the buildings, so we would look for aerial pictures on Google, drone footage, and even vlogs that were uploaded on YouTube,” Yusri told Malay Mail.

The Petronas Twin Towers is not the only building that the 21-year-old is currently working on.

Yusri and his fellow gamers have their hands busy working on building the Suria KLCC shopping mall at the base of the towers after completing the nearby KLCC Tower 3 and the Maxis Tower.

He also plans to build other landmarks in the city such as the KLCC Park, the Mandarin Oriental Kuala Lumpur, the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre, and the Felda Tower.

Good luck to Yusri and his gaming friends!
