Minecraft – Pocket Edition is one of the most high profile Xperia PLAY optimised gaming titles on the Android Market. We have just attended a web chat with Mojang’s business developer, Daniel Kaplan who revealed some interesting details about future plans for the title. For those that don’t know, Kaplan is in charge of Minecraft PE and was the first person hired by Notch to be part of the Minecraft team.
Minecraft – Pocket Edition was updated over the weekend to include the long-awaited Survival Mode. However, Kaplan and team aren’t resting on their laurels. Kaplan said that the “next big thing will be prototyping how the crafting system will be, which we don’t know yet”. They are also planning to tweak the touch screen controls, introduce new music and new blocks/mobs. Timing remains the main unknown right now but it’s good to hear the game will be continually supported much like the PC version.
