Play 'Minecraft' On The Oculus Rift At This Time

Minecraft has landed on the Oculus Rift as part of a free update to the Windows 10 Edition beta. Anyone who owns the Pc or Mac version of Minecraft is robotically granted access to the Windows 10 beta model; hit up Mojang to sign up and begin taking part in.

We tried out the Oculus Rift model of Minecraft back in March and located it to be completely delightful.

"It's the most effective and more immersive VR experiences I've had to date," senior editor Nathan Ingraham wrote. "The truth is, that lack of tremendous element really helps Minecraft be so profitable -- the sport doesn't attempt to imitate reality. As a substitute, it felt extra like I stepped right into a cartoon."

Minecraft is already playable on the Samsung Gear VR, though that's limited to the options of the Pocket Version. The Oculus Rift model features assist for the Xbox One controller plus keyboard and mouse, and players' VR-specific settings are saved separately from their traditional Minecraft world.

Mojang developer Tommaso Checchi tweeted on Thursday that the Oculus Rift model of Minecraft would land some time this week, though he didn't reveal a precise date. Pleased  1 site , everybody.
