Minecraft Launched for PlayStation VR

 Do you want to drop into Minecraft in Virtual Reality? Well, it seems like your wish is Minecraft’s command. You’ll be amazed to know that Minecraft’s PlayStation VR update is ready to download for free if you’re a PS owner.


Taking you to a little introduction for those who are not familiar with Minecraft, it is a video game that was developed by Mojang Studios released in 2011. It has become the best-selling video game since then and has been ported to multiple platforms. Do not get surprised when we say that it sold over 200 million copies in total across all the platforms. Not only this, but a total of 126 monthly users are active as of 2020.

Interestingly, the Minecraft game has been featured on every console since 2011, including the PlayStation Vita and the new Nintendo 3DS. Today the game has arrived at another achievement as it dispatches on Sony’s PlayStation VR as a feature of a free update for the PlayStation 4 version.

Though it’s not the first time of virtual reality for Minecraft, the game had already launched on Oculus Rift and HTC Vive VR platforms in 2016. Instead, it’s the first time for Minecraft to appear on a console-based VR platform. The PSVR release of the game was being planned since the Minecraft Bedrock Edition was brought by the team for PlayStation 4, according to Mojang.

Mojang also mentioned that the version brought to the PlayStation 4 is real and wholesome. Not a single thing removed from it. Thus, you can enjoy it in the same manner as you already do on other platforms. However, there are a few additions made to tweak your VR experience. It includes the availability of two new modes upon downloading, Immersive Mode and Living Room Mode. The details regarding the two modes are yet to be revealed. However, the confirmation regarding the use of the Dualshock 4 controller is out there.

A lot of fans of the Minecraft game requested for the PlayStation VR support since the cross-play was enabled in 2019. Undoubtedly, this is the best time to release a PlayStation VR update for Minecraft as pandemic has given people a lot of time to stay at home and explore the best of everything.

Sony’s PlayStation team has shared a short video of the game via social media for you to get an idea, and it does seem interesting. Though the news of the PlayStation 4 update of Minecraft is exciting, a lot of PSVR fans are concerned about Sony’s plans as they still haven’t announced the PlayStation 5 support for the headset.

Anyway, looking forward to more updates anytime soon but for now, it’s time to enjoy the most influential game of all time with PlayStation VR experience.
