VR Minecraft Gets in Gear on Samsung Gear Phones

VR Minecraft Gets in Gear on Samsung Gear Phones

Once all this VR hubbub started, did you look at Minecraft and wonder, “When?” Well, the answer is now. That is, if you have the right smartphone. It turns out the Samsung Galaxy S7, S7 Edge, Note 5, S6, and S6 Edge Gear VR-compatible phones all work with Minecraft now! All you need is the Android version of Minecraft: Pocket Edition , a Bluetooth controller, the Gear VR headset, and your phone.

For people who managed to get Oculus Rifts and are feeling jealous, don’t. Mojang thought of you too. The Oculus Store has a Gear VR-compatible version of Minecraft out right now. It’s $6.99 and functionally identical to the iOS, Android, and Windows 10 versions of the Minecraft: Pocket Edition . It’s not exactly what you want, but it’s something.

This is extraordinary news. Minecraft seems like one of the few games that will immediately work perfectly with VR headsets, and it’s great to see everyone getting a chance to enjoy it that way!
