Pocket Edition
Daniel Kaplan announces on Mojang’s blog that Minecraft Pocket Edition, a version of the game for smartphones, will be demonstrated at E3 2011. He says the first device to get Pocket Edition will be the Xperia Play. A representative from Mojang tells TouchArcade that changes are needed to make the game compatible with smartphones:
When playing on smart phones you will have a different screen size compared to PC, different hardware, different attention spans and thus the game needs to be customized to fit the mobile specifications
