Last week we reported on a new version update that would be arriving for Minecraft: Pocket Edition in the near future. Well that future has become the present as Mojang has pushed out the version 0.10.0 update onto Android this morning. In a nutshell this update improves the graphics, increases the game’s performance, and killed off a whole lot of bugs which makes for a much more polished and enjoyable experience when playing.
Mojang has submitted the newest Minecraft: Pocket Edition update to Apple for approval which generally means that the Android version should also be getting this update pretty soon. While this is a major version number change, the update being version 0.10.0, about 65% of this update happens to be tweaks and improvements to the game, while the remaining 35% consists of new features.
Emulating another operating system on a platform not native to said operating system isn’t a new thing. There are plenty of emulators out there that can emulate just about anything you want, even on a platform like Samsung Gear Live. So while putting Window95 onto your Gear Live might seem a bit odd of an idea at first, until the cool factor sets in. Of course playing DOOM on it definitely adds to that.
PocketMine-MP is pretty much the go to software if you want to run your own Minecraft: Pocket Edition server but don’t want the limited population that the Mojang official servers offer for a fee. With this software, you are technically only limited to the hardware your server is running.
With rumors of a purchase between the two companies floating around last week, today the announcement has been made official that Microsoft will be purchasing Mojang for a mere $2.5 Billion. There are a few reasons for the sale but one of the main ones if that Notch has wanted to work on smaller projects and running a company this size, which he never though he would be doing, isn’t allowing him to work on these smaller projects.
The big 0.9.0 update for Minecraft: Pocket Edition that landed recently has received a bit of a boost with a quick 0.9.1 update shortly after its release and now we have version 0.9.2 that was just pushed to Google Play and Amazon Appstore. The quick 0.9.1 update was a few bug fixes but this new 0.9.2 has a pretty big changelog of tweaks, bug fixes and more.
The massively long wait for the 0.9.0 update for Minecraft: Pocket Edition is now finally over. Mojang has just pushed the snapshot update onto Google Play and people should start seeing it become available in the a few minutes. If you haven’t been following what will be coming with this update, we have the full list of goodies here for you to check out.
We haven’t reported on the progress regarding the big 0.9.0 update for Minecraft: Pocket Edition in quite some time but now it looks like it might be worth posting an update. Why is that you might ask? Because it appears that the 0.9.0 update will be arriving as soon as tomorrow or as late as next week. It all stems on about seven bugs that need squashing.
It has been a bit since we last posted about Minecraft: Pocket Edition and what kind of content we can look forward to in the next update. In fact we haven’t posted about this game since the last major update but that doesn’t mean things aren’t in the works, features that people have been wanting for awhile now.
If you follow this site on a regular basis then you know we’ve been apart of the beta testing going on since it launched recently. Reporting on the upcoming 0.8.0 update for Minecraft: Pocket Edition has been fun because there’s just so much coming with this update that even the official changelog on Google Play doesn’t mention it all. The update is now here for everyone who have been patiently waiting for it.
