Minecraft Earth: Revolutionizing Augmented Reality
Minecraft Earth is a new upcoming AR(Augmented Reality) experience that will be released by Mojang, the company that made the famous game Minecraft. Minecraft Earth is a mobile game for IOS and Android. The game is currently in closed beta and is not open to the public but will be downloadable to all by the end of the year.
Minecraft Earth will allow you to go around your town or city and build whatever you dream. The game will also involve adventures which enable the player to gather more rare resources and gain exp(Experience Points). Minecraft Earth allows for you to build small projects like a barn to massive buildings like skyscrapers. Each block in Minecraft Earth is 1 meter high and the limit is 256 meters high, giving players a lot of space and freedom to create.
Minecraft Earth will incorporate some of the basic things from regular Minecraft such as crafting and smelting. Players can craft new items and smelt ores they have mined to make better, upgraded items. Crafting and smelting will take time, but can be rushed by using Rubies. Rubies is Minecraft Earths premium currency. It can be used to instantly rush items that are crafting or smelting, or you could buy more baseplates to build on. Rubies will be available to be purchased, or they can be found by playing the game.
Minecraft Earth has many gamers excited for this new AR experience. Many are expecting it to revolutionize the future of AR games.
