Minecraft Surpasses 176 Million Sales, Announces AR Game

To celebrate Minecraft‘s 10-year anniversary, media giant Microsoft revealed that the game has officially surpassed 176 million sales worldwide and also finally unveiled its new augmented reality title “Minecraft Earth”.

A few details about the upcoming title straight from Microsoft:

Minecraft Earth is an all new free-to-play augmented reality game for mobile that will bring the creative nature of Minecraft to the real world.

The game’s mechanics are simple: explore your neighborhood to find blocks and unique mobs for your builds. Once you have them, any flat surface is an opportunity to build.  Team up with friends to create amazing builds on Build Plates, and then place them in the real world to explore at life-size. You can even put your survival skills to the test and battle mobs IRL!  Craft new items, breed mobs, grow crops –it’s Minecraft as you know it in a way you’ve never seen before. There’s endless fun to be had and it’s even better with friends.

The game blends state-of-the-art Microsoft technology like Azure Spatial Anchors AR tracking and PlayFab integration to bring the Minecraft Earth experience to life.
