“I barely slept last night,” Jessica Zahn told me a few weeks ago. In Redmond, Washington, where she was, it was 9 in the morning. In New Zealand, though, it was 5 the following morning, and the moment Zahn and her team at Microsoft had been working toward for nearly two years was finally nigh. When the clock struck 6, they would press a button, after which point anyone waking up in the Land of Taika Waititi who opened the Apple App Store or Google Play on their smartphone would find Minecraft Earth ready for download.
Since that morning, Microsoft’s augmented-reality game has landed in Iceland, Mexico, Sweden, the Philippines, Australia, South Korea, Canada, and the United Kingdom—each time in “early access” mode, what effectively amounts to an open beta for what is already a living, breathing global game project. Now you can add the US to that list. People have been using Minecraft to create fantastic imaginary realms for a decade, but today Minecraft Earth marches out of the imagination and into the real world. What sounds like a single title really encompasses three distinct play experiences. There’s your personal build plate, the foundation for a Minecraft world that you design yourself, constructed from resources you collect walking around in the real world and then craft or smelt into new materials. (You can also open your build to friends, inviting them to contribute—or even mine their own materials from what you’ve painstakingly erected.) When you’ve got something you want to show off, you can scale your build up from tabletop size to real-world size and deploy it in the wild for a virtual walkthrough. Then there’s Adventures, multiplayer experiences that spawn dynamically in public spaces; some are combat-driven, others more exploratory. All of it fueled by an ambitious augmented-reality backbone that goes beyond what predecessors like Pokémon Go and Harry Potter: Wizards Unite have realized.
Granted, those play experiences don’t necessarily constitute the entirety of what lead producer Zahn and her colleagues envisioned, but such is the nature of Minecraft Earth. While there may never be what you’d consider an Official Launch, the game is constantly undergoing a long and varied evolution, adding features when they can stand up to the rigors of shared, persistent augmented reality. “With a mobile game you have a little more flexibility because people are more used to updating games,” she says, “but we’ll try to make sure that people only have to update when there's something worth updating to.”
