On mobile, there’s Minecraft Earth, Microsoft’s brand-new augmented-reality software for iOS and Android devices. The mobile game, which has been gradually released in countries this fall, allows you to explore environments, gather objects, encounter creatures, and go on adventures in an AR world on your phone.

It’s been a few months since Mojang announced that it was shutting down Minecraft. The claims that it would be shut down in 2021 are nothing more than false information. There hasn’t been an official statement from Mojang to the contrary, so don’t panic!

In January, Mojang revealed that due to the ongoing COVID-19 epidemic, Minecraft Earth would be phased out. It said that the game was “built around free movement and collaborative play – two things that have become almost impossible in today’s world.”

You’ll tap blocks in Minecraft Earth to gather up construction material. Mojang has a great sense of humor, as the items you acquire by tapping them are called Tappables. The Tappables go into your inventory where you may utilize them to construct things later on.

I suggest downloading Minecraft Earth if you’re seeking for an entertaining AR game. Despite being in early access, it’s well-polished, and most casual gamers should be able to complete it without being too harassed by the in-app purchases.
