Minecraft Earth coming soon to mobile devices (+ Free Minecraft Skin)

[Samster]

Yes, you read the title correctly. After ten years, Microsoft is finally making a new Minecraft game, and it’s for mobile devices. This new game, titled Minecraft Earth, is a spin-off of the original Minecraft series, and uses AR (Augmented Reality) as its main feature. In it’s official reveal trailer (which can be seen below), we see a girl using her phone’s AR feature to place Minecraft trees in the real world. So basically, it’s a game that’s sort of like Pokémon GO, but not exactly.

Not too much is know about this new game as of yet, but if you want to be the first to know more info (and have a chance to beta test the game before it releases), click the link below to sign up for early access launch. You’ll also be rewarded with a free Minecraft Earth skin for the original Minecraft game, just for signing up.

Anyone looking forward to this new release?

Just a clarification on this point, it's not for the "original" game (Java), it's for the bedrock version since that's where the paid skins are (because Micro$oft)

From what I can tell, this is just the Hololens minecraft version ported to mobile devices. So it's not really a "new game" per se, just a port of something already made lol.
