Designed for augmented reality, Minecraft Earth will soon cease. You can find more details on the shutdown on the Minecraft website. Minecraft Earth received the final update in the game's history - the developers decided to remove all transactions involving real money This nice gesture is related to the developers' decision to stop supporting the game and the officially shutdown of the game on June 30, 2021. If you spent money in Minecraft Earth at any point during the life of the game, you'll get a token that will allow you to download the Bedrock edition of Minecraft to your mobile device. Once June 30th comes and goes, Microsoft will delete player data on July 1st.
Throughout 2019, Microsoft experimented with building a real-world, augmented reality Minecraft game designed in the same vein as Pokémon GO. Mojang Studios announced its AR mobile game Minecraft Earth will be shutting down on June 30, 2021.The 'difficult decision' was made because the ongoing coronavirus pandemic has made Minecraft Earth's tenets of free movement and collaborative play 'near impossible,' Mojang said in a blog post, and thus it will be re-allocating resources to support other parts of the community. "We hope these adjustments will allow you to explore, craft, and build more - while staying safe indoors," the studio said. Minecraft Earth was designed around free movement and collaborative play two things that have become near impossible in the current global situation. It also offers players a chance to see all the content that Mojang was working on before today's announcement. The studio is rolling out one last update for the game it says contains changes "to make your time in Minecraft Earth as fun as possible." Among other tweaks, the update does away with real-money transactions and drastically reduces the time it will take for players to craft and build things within the game. Those changes clearly weren't enough.īut if there's a silver lining in today's news, it's that Mojang plans to send off Minecraft Earth in style. Like Niantic with Pokemon Go, Mojang had tweaked the game to make it easier to play at home. On July 1, Mojang will delete any Minecraft Earth player data unrelated to Character Creator and Minecoin. "Minecraft Earth was designed around free movement and collaborative play - two things that have become near impossible in the current global situation," the studio said. Once June 30 rolls around, players will be unable to download or play Minecraft Earth. Developer Mojang Studios blamed the coronavirus pandemic and all the changes to day-to-day life that have come with it for the shutdown. Engadget reports: Minecraft Earth players have until June 30th, 2021, to play the augmented reality title before Microsoft shuts down its servers and it's no longer available to download from app marketplaces. A little over a year after bringing Minecraft Earth in the US, Microsoft announced this week it will shut down the game later this year.
