Mixed Reality and Virtual Reality: Minecraft's Shift Towards Traditional Gaming
Mixed Reality and Virtual Reality: A Disappointing Goodbye
Minecraft fans received unsettling news from developer Mojang, as the popular game will cease support for virtual reality and mixed reality by March 2025. The latest patch notes for the Bedrock edition confirm this decision, stating that 'Our ability to support VR/MR devices has come to an end, and will no longer be supported in updates after March of 2025.'
A Silver Lining for Block Builders
While Minecraft transitions away from VR, players will still have access to their worlds and Marketplace purchases on traditional devices. The end of support for VR is disappointing for those who enjoyed the immersive experience of block building.
Exciting News for PlayStation 5 Owners
In brighter news, Mojang has finally launched a native edition of Minecraft for PlayStation 5, offering players a thrilling experience with 4K resolution and 60 fps. Players who already own the PS4 version can obtain this update for free from the PlayStation Store. With the recent Bundles of Bravery update, it’s an excellent time for new adventures in this beloved blocky universe.
