Minecraft Vr and everything to do with it including video’s mods, how to and more!

How to get Minecraft VR on PS4 and what is Minecraft VR?

Games have become the main source of entertainment for this generation. Back in the day, games had a totally different meaning and were a bit more physical. See back in the day, before the age of the internet, games were classified into two categories that are outdoor games and indoor games. Outdoor games have remained the same to this day as they consist of games like football, baseball, badminton, etc. This is because these games cannot be mimicked virtually, as it requires proper interaction which cannot be portrayed virtually. Then comes indoor games, these indoor games have been completely changed. Before the computer and the internet age, indoor games consisted of cardboard games like monopoly and all, but these have been completely replaced virtually by computer games.

These computer games have come a long way and I remember the very first game to be just a one dimensional game. The game was so pixelated and basic that it would have been better if the game wasn’t made at all. But still, it was a huge step for mankind. Since then games have come so far that now VR or virtual reality has been introduced in the gaming industry as well. So and so, along with the gaming industry, a wholly separate and independent gaming community has been made as well. This community is comprised of all types of gamers, from big gamers to small gamers, and have these gamers have made this community the best in the business. Now let’s get into what Minecraft VR is?

Minecraft VR or Minecraft VR mod

To get a better understanding of what Minecraft VR is, let’s understand what Minecraft itself is. Minecraft is one of the most popular games in the industry right now. In this, you build stuff, battle with people and since it is an open world game, you get to explore endless opportunities. Now with an added feature of virtual reality, you get Minecraft VR. What Minecraft VR offers is that it lets you move around quickly, let’s you do smart actions, and much more. Just think of it is as you are playing a game in real life with full parts of your body in action and complete focus. How cool and amazing is that? For the first time in history, you’ll be able to play Minecraft according to more than just your hands. These are some of the reasons why Minecraft is the leader in the industry. Another question that comes in everyone’s mind is that what is Minecraft VR oculus quest?

Minecraft VR Oculus Quest

The Oculus Quest is a virtual reality headset created by Oculus VR, a division of Facebook Inc, released on May 21, 2019. While it was originally launched as a standalone device, on November 12, 2019, it was given the ability to work connected to a computer via a USB cable, which enables its use for playing PC VR games.

Because the name of the company and model is Oculus quest, people confuse it with a sort of a mission in Minecraft. And they are not to be blamed, it does seem like a special quest for the Minecraft VR mod. Well, that’s been cleared, we can give credit to the company for providing us with such a great platform which made this all possible. See, Minecraft is developed by game developers and game developers are basically software engineers, what they specialize in is that they are responsible for making a software or are limited to the coding aspect of the gaming industry. Although game developers know a lot about hardware but they don’t specialize in it like hardware engineers. Now once the game has been made, engineers kick in, and in our case, the engineers were in the form of Oculus. These engineers developed a platform that could support the game specifically and help us, the end users experience another whole world. Now how do you play Minecraft on Oculus?

How to get Minecraft on PC?

There are two PC renditions of Minecraft accessible to download: Minecraft Java Edition or Minecraft for Windows 10 (usually known as Bedrock). There are some eminent contrasts between the two renditions. Bedrock doesn’t have a refreshed battle framework, however, it takes into consideration crossplay with Xbox One and portable, and has some substance that Java doesn’t. In the interim Java just permits players to play with other Java players, however has progressively open servers and a superior modding scene. On the off chance that you’re not exactly sure which to pick, at that point we exhort going for Java, as it incorporated a free duplicate of Bedrock with it.

  1. Go to the Minecraft website

First of all, you’ll need to mosey on over to the Minecraft site. From here you ought to be welcomed by an enormous picture of Steve and Alex viewing a Minecraft world. Look to one side and there ought to be a green box that says ‘get Minecraft. Click on it.

  1. Choose the best Minecraft version according to your need

After you’ve clicked the button, you’ll be given a choice of which form of Minecraft would you like to download? The choices here are PC, and others (there are numerous variants of Minecraft!). For now, we need to tap on the one checked ‘PC’.

  1. Minecraft Java or Minecraft Windows 10?

The decision you need to make is which adaptation would you like to download: the Java Edition of Minecraft or the Windows 10 (Bedrock) variant?

On the off chance that you decide on the Windows 10 game, you’ll be moved to a rendition explicit Minecraft page with a ‘purchase’ button. Snap ‘purchase’ and you’ll at that point move to the Microsoft Store where you can buy that adaptation of the game and introduce it immediately.

If you’d prefer to download Minecraft Java Edition, in any case, click on that variant, on the left, and when the following page loads, click purchase.

  1. Registering yourself on Minecraft

While Windows 10 clients are presently completed or full, there are as yet a couple of things left to do to snatch the Java Edition. After you hit ‘purchase’, we’ll have to enlist another record with an email address and secret word. Nonexclusive passwords aren’t permitted, so no creature names and so forth. When that is rounded out hit ‘register’ at that point open another tab and pull up your email inbox. You should receive a four letter code that you’ll currently need to enter back on the Minecraft site to proceed further. Enter the code in the container, hit ‘check’ and you’re nearly done.

  1. Buying and installing Minecraft

Then comes the purchase page. Enter your card details, double-check your card details, and when you’re sure, satisfied and happy about the transaction, click the ‘purchase’ button.

Wait for the page to load and you’ll be cast off to the ‘buy total’ screen. Click on ‘Download for Windows’ and a record named ‘MinecraftInstaller.msi’ should auto download.

Click on that document and the game will introduce. From here, simply power through ‘next’ until it’s introduced and hit finish.

Another window should open (that is the Minecraft launcher), sign in with your email address and secret word at that point click ‘play’. Presently simply sit back as Minecraft Java Edition downloads and you can bounce into a universe of interminable fun.

How to get Minecraft on XBOX?

Installing Minecraft on XBOX is easy but the whole process is a bit complicated for almost every user. As there are different versions of the XBOX and further more different versions of the game itself. Back in September, Microsoft and Mojang inaugurated the Better Together update for Minecraft on Windows 10, Xbox One, iOS, and Android. This update permitted players on those gadgets to play together and get to the Marketplace on any of those stages.

On account of Minecraft on Xbox One, if you buy the game now on the Xbox Store, it’s the Bedrock Edition, called “Minecraft”. On the off chance that you had the past Minecraft: Xbox One Edition, you get the new one for free.

So the end verdict is that if you had the previous version installed, you’d get the new one for free. This permits players to switch to and fro between the two variants and players are preferring the old Xbox One Edition and if you’re a new player, just go to the XBOX store and download it after purchasing it.

How to download or get Minecraft VR on PS4?

Well, the purpose behind mentioning PC and XBOX first was that Minecraft VR is owned by Microsoft itself, and even though this isn’t the reason but it isn’t available on PSVR for ps4 at this time. Nor haven’t any plans to make a VR supported Minecraft game has been announced by the developers of Minecraft. It is however available on Microsoft operated consoles and systems along with the compatibility with Samsung Gear VR.

The thing that sucks and is disappointing is that PSVR has one of the best virtual reality systems in the gaming world. And almost half of the community has PS4 with them as their main gaming console. Still, no plans or reasons have been announced by Minecraft developers.

What to do if there is no Minecraft VR for ps4?

There isn’t much that can be done but the community and fans have found a way. They have signed an online petition and it has gained over a thousand signatures and this is obvious that the demand for getting a PSVR version of the Minecraft VR is very high and effective.

Minecraft VR for iPhone and IOS devices:

Minecraft is available for iPhone and IOS devices. Apple has better luck or ties than Sony, just saying. But you would have to buy a Samsung VR to play it with and the experience isn’t that good. Many gamers in the gaming community have suggested that it is better to get a PC or a Samsung mobile rather than an IOS device or an iPhone device to play Minecraft on. The experience just isn’t the same when you are playing on an IOS device. The game is there, the technology is quite there but the experience on iPhone for Minecraft just isn’t the same.

Now a game this big must have controllers for it as well. Below is the list of devices that are compatible with Minecraft VR.

  1. Windows Mixed Reality
  2. Samsung Gear VR
  3. Oculus touch
  4. Oculus Rift

There isn’t a proper list released by the Minecraft team on which controllers are supported or which are not but some gamers have experimented with it have found a lot of things. In some devices and platforms, ps4 controllers worked just fine, yes you heard it right. Other than this all Microsoft made controllers like the XBOX controller and all are supported by default on the game. Now other than this, the Oculus VR just got an update and it now supports touch as well. This update is named as the Oculus rift touch. Now, what is the Oculus Rift touch? Has Oculus Rift touch changed the game or its experience?

What is Oculus Rift Touch?

Oculus Rift touch as mentioned above is an update that helps you use your arms as well in the game. Being a little physical in Minecraft’s is energizing, and this is done on purpose. Rather, the Touch controllers extremely simply fill in as pointers. While your hands are followed, the controller act as pointing devices. On the off chance that you swipe away at the earth and trees toward the beginning of the game, nothing occurs. Rather you need to press a button to actuate the normal mining activity. Weapons are a similar story. You’re simply mimicking the pointing from the head-followed controls, which is the way you play Minecraft in VR with an Xbox controller. That in itself is a huge achievement yet it unquestionably feels like more could have been done here to make the Touch form of Minecraft effectively the best. The way things are, it isn’t so much that very different from the standard method of playing the game. Be that as it may, everything isn’t lost for those ready to include a couple of mods. On the off chance that you need to play Minecraft with Touch and have your swings mean something, at that point you should investigate Vivecraft. As the name suggests, this informal mod of the game as of now underpins the HTC Vive. Check out beatsabre on vr here: https://seriousvirtualworlds.net/2020/07/05/beat-saber/
