A hardcore mode button posted on twitter by Notch[1]
Hardcore mode is a new difficulty mode that is set to be released in the Beta 1.9 (or possibly 1.10[citation needed]) update. The mode is set from the world generation page and can be toggled on and off. [citation needed]
Hardcore mode deletes the world when the player dies.
While playing in hardcore mode, the game is locked to hard difficulty.[2]
The idea came to Notch from a Minecraft gameplay blog on the PCGamer site.[3]
