Minecraft Earth, a brand new AR mobile version of the survival and construction game of a sensational sandbox, will arrive on iOS later this month and on Android "soon after," according to the official blog.
We heard about Minecraft Earth for the first time about two months ago, in mid-May, when Mojang developers released a trailer, and last month debuted as such. Now they have a brand new beta announcement video that gives more details about the game's mechanics and gameplay:
Basically, we present you a fantastic world map that strangely resembles Pokemon Go, with a Minecraft style avatar and skins. It uses the real world map to create the environment. You walk around and press objects such as animals and blocks to collect them. Naturally, they are called "tappables" in Minecraft Earth.
Once you have collected enough resources, you move to the next level and once you have enough resources, you can create items that are placed in the real world from your phone's screen. It is described as a "living, breathing" Minecraft world. It includes a seamlessly integrated multiplayer mode, allowing users to help or curb your creations. Then you can resize your creations to the actual size to explore them and see the world around you.
I have not tried yet, but honestly, it looks awesome.
The limited iOS beta for Minecraft Earth is expected to be released in the next two weeks, ie by July 26th. Only a "limited number of players in selected cities" will be chosen before a wider release this summer.
You can sign up for the chance to be selected in the closed beta here and check out the main website for more details as they are available.
