To say that Minecraft has become a successful intellectual property would be to put it down a bit. As one of the best-selling video games of all time, with hundreds of millions of copies sold to date, it has become a global sensation and is enjoyed by many people, despite being over a decade old now.
Part of this success could be due to the fact that there are many ports of the game, as well as two official versions that each have their own merits, and it looks like these two versions will now be merged into one.
Or at least that is known from a recent publication on the website of Minecraft. Apparently the editions Java Y bedrock of the game will be mixed, uniting both under the same purchase. Conveniently named “Minecraft: Java and Bedrock Edition for PC”, it will become the “only offering” of the simple PC version of the game. For those who already own one or the other version, the message goes on to say that the other version will be offered to them for free.
Minecraft Java Edition Y Bedrock Edition they are basically two versions of the same game. While the former is the original version, the latter was introduced in 2017, a few years after Microsoft purchased the game from Mojang, and was based on the Pocket Edition for mobile.
Although they offer the same experience, each version has some differences, with the Bedrock Edition trying to inject new ideas to perhaps give it a little more edge over the Java build.
For example, Minecraft Bedrock Edition it comes with a hardcore mode, which allows players to have a much more challenging experience when playing the game. This version also features cross-play, where players can connect with others on a different platform.
However, the Java version seems to have a better performance advantage, while Bedrock has been designed to be more stable, especially on low-end systems.
