UWP should ensure Windows 10 Mobile users don't get left out in the cold in the future, and we can only hope that Minecraft: PE arriving on Windows 10 Mobile is a sign of things to come moving forward.

The addition of Minecraft's Addons has the potential to introduce programming logic to millions of youngsters for the first time, as Microsoft looks to gaming to inspire the next generation of coders. Minecraft continues to be a global phenomenon for Microsoft, inspiring an entire generation of gamers.

While it's a shame that Windows Phone 8.1 users won't receive further updates for Minecraft Pocket Edition, it's encouraging to see Microsoft continue with their support of Windows 10 Mobile. Huge thanks to Jesse Merriam and Microsoft for speaking with us! Jesse: You can travel to space today, just create an add-on for it! The vanilla survival experience is always growing and evolving based on exciting ideas from the team and things we notice have become broadly adopted by the community. Jez: Finally, will I ever be able to travel into space in Minecraft? But because it's a new platform, you will be able to unlock them over again. Go Gamerscore! Check out Windows 10 Edition Windows 10 mobile on Pocket Edition will have all the same achievements (currently 72 of them for a total of 1550 points). Jez: Will Minecraft PE on W10M support Xbox achievements? If so, how many points (and are they separate from W10 version?) Everyone plays together on iOS, Android, and W10. Jez: So we presume that Minecraft PE players on W10M can connect to Realms and play with friends on iOS, Android, W10, etc. Jesse: We haven't yet been specific about how Realms are coming to console, but we value bringing the Minecraft community together and were too are excited about the future. For now, you can rest assured that Realms players on Windows 10, Windows 10 Mobile, Android, iOS, Kindle Fire, Gear VR and Oculus Rift can all play in Realms together and as you learned today, the list just keeps growing!**

Jez: Will Minecraft PE and Windows 10 Realms eventually connect to Realms on Xbox One for true cross-play capabilities?
