Finally, Jens says that armor will “ probably" be a part of the version 0.5.1 update too. Below that are a couple of screens showcasing some new block-placing behaviors which the team is testing out, but will depend on how well they work with the whole touch interface of the game. If you are a big player of Minecraft on desktop or console then chances are those blocks will look pretty familiar. Hopping back over to Bergensten’s feed, earlier today the developer tweeted a picture of some new blocks that are coming to the mobile Minecraft, which you can see below. You can see a screen of those clouds below, but Johan goes on to mention that only newer devices will support the clouds while slower, older devices will remain with a pure blue sky. He also tweeted a picture of clouds which fellow Mojang’er Johan Bernhardsson has added to Minecraft – PE. Jens Bergensten, who was a lead designer for Minecraft on desktop and recently jumped over to work more heavily on the Pocket Edition, tweeted yesterday that the sand and gravel blocks in Pocket Edition will soon succumb to the effects of gravity, just like in the desktop version.
A couple of the Mojang team members responsible for the Pocket Edition have taken to Twitter to dish some details about what we might be seeing in this upcoming version 0.5.1 update. “A divestment would have severe adverse effects on the development of competition because it would prevent Microsoft from achieving its key strategic objective, namely building a mobile gaming business with sufficient scale in order to challenge Google and Apple,” the Xbox maker said in its response to the CMA’s provisional findings.As we mentioned back in December, Minecraft Pocket Edition ($6.99) passed the 5 million units sold mark (and that’s before including the crazy download numbers from Christmas) and developer Mojang was busy working on an update for release later this month or in early February. The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has said Microsoft may need to divest part of Activision Blizzard or Call of Duty if the watchdog is to approve the $69 billion merger.īut Microsoft is reluctant to entertain such structural remedies given the size of the Call of Duty brand and Activision Blizzard’s mobile expertise. “CoD: Mobile is expected to be phased out over time (outside of China) with the launch of Warzone Mobile,” it added. “CoD: Mobile was developed and is owned by TiMi Studios, a subsidiary of Tencent,” Microsoft said in a newly published response to the UK competition regulator’s investigation into its proposed acquisition of Activision Blizzard. Officially revealed last September, Warzone Mobile is being co-developed by Activision’s Shanghai, Beenox, Digital Legends, and Solid State studios. But according to Microsoft, Activision’s long-term plan is to replace the game with Warzone Mobile, which is scheduled for release this year.
