Multiple Independent Games Festival award-winning title Minecraft is coming to Android and iOS mobile devices in the form of Minecraft: Pocket Edition. This version will be custom-tailored to the smartphone experience, with developer Mojang citing “different screen size compared to PC, different hardware, different attention spans,” as needing accommodation. The game will release first on Sony Ericsson’s Xperia Play, taking full advantage of the device’s game controls.
Minecraft: Pocket Edition will have a demo and information session at this year’s E3, and will later come to Android and iOS devices.
