Mojang Studios Announces Minecraft for PS5, Leaving Xbox Series X|S Players in Limbo

This week, Mojang Studios, the creative force behind the beloved Minecraft franchise, has set the gaming community abuzz with the announcement of a release date for the PlayStation 5 version of the game. Scheduled to launch on October 22nd, this native PS5 version promises to deliver an enhanced experience for players on Sony’s latest console.

However, the excitement is tinged with a hint of perplexity, as the same cannot be said for Xbox Series X|S owners. Despite Mojang’s long-standing association with Microsoft, the absence of a native version for these consoles raises eyebrows. It is indeed curious that while Minecraft is making its way to the PS5, there is still no word on an optimized version for the Xbox Series X and S.

While it is true that Minecraft has seen improvements on current-gen Xbox consoles since a preview update earlier this year, players are still engaging with what is technically the Xbox One version of the game. This situation feels particularly odd given Microsoft’s ownership of the intellectual property and the studio behind it.

As the gaming community reflects on the 10-year anniversary of Minecraft’s Xbox One release, the anticipation for a dedicated Xbox Series version remains palpable. Despite the calls for an upgrade, it appears that players will have to continue waiting for the much-anticipated ray tracing features that could elevate their gaming experience.

Minecraft Pi Edition is specifically designed for the Raspberry Pi and is not directly compatible with Windows. However, you can run it on Windows using a Raspberry Pi emulator or through virtualization software. You need to install an emulator like QEMU to create a virtual Raspberry Pi environment, then install the Pi edition within this emulated environment. Another approach is using remote desktop software to control a Raspberry Pi running Minecraft Pi Edition from your Windows machine.

To install Minecraft on a Raspberry Pi 5, first ensure your system is up to date by running 'sudo apt update' and 'sudo apt upgrade'.

For Minecraft Bedrock, use 'sudo apt install minecraft' after adding the right repository. For Minecraft Java, download the ARM-optimized .deb file from the official website and install it using 'sudo dpkg -i .deb'. Ensure you have a compatible version of Java installed for the Java Edition.
