We predicted earlier this month that there was little chance that Minecraft Pocket Edition would be released during May. If that were true, there would already be one or two betas relased. But since Mojang is still fixing bugs we predicted it would come later, and it looks like we were right. Today on Twitter, Jens (a developer for Minecraft and Minecraft PE) said:
Minecraft PE 0.9.0 is apparently already in a playable state, but the developers cite memory problems and bugs the reason why the update is not available yet. This marks the second time MCPE 0.9.0 has been delayed from it's original late March release date. On Reddit, Tommaso (another MCPE developer) said:
So there you have it, basically what everyone expected. The developers as of late have reported working on both strongholds and immersive mode support for Android 4.4 devices (which hides the on-screen navigation buttons if your device has them). Maybe if we are lucky, MCPE 0.9.0 will be released before Half-Life 3.

I know everybody (who is waiting for the PE update) is waiting for the PE update, but we don't have a release date yet. June, maybe?

We never want to tell, but people hardly ask us anything else these days! Anyway right now the game is definitely playable and we are pretty satisfied of how it plays, we still need to address some performance & memory problem + add a couple of small features. And of course, bug fixes.

Yeah, that was pretty predictable :P
ReplyDeleteLOL, love the picture
ReplyDeleteI really don't mind. The longer the wait = The better/less buggy it'll be :D
ReplyDeleteYeah I guessed...maybe it will come out even later. Well it'll be really good and i hope before the year ends (i want to play with my friends before leaving for vacation!) still disapointed though.
ReplyDeletewell at least I have PC now. (:<
ReplyDeleteI remember 0.8.0, which had (if I counted correctly) FOUR DELAYS
ReplyDeleteI chuckled when you said"Maybe if we are lucky, MCPE 0.9.0 will be released before Half-Life 3."hilarious
ReplyDeletewhy dosnt mojang just send out the update now and add the other features (bugs and such)in the NEXT update since its preety much just just bugs now
ReplyDeleteSo basically we might have to wait until next year for 0.9.0... :`(
ReplyDeletePROBABLY not.
ReplyDeleteI am so upset because they always delay updates!
ReplyDeleteI am so bummed they always delay it!
ReplyDeleteOh, come on! It;s being delayed? I've been waiting for like a month! I hope this page is all lies. . .(Not saying that it is)
ReplyDeleteReally this just really sucks.well who, cares at least were still going to have it. But seriously stop the delays
ReplyDeleteI sure hope not :( at least it'll be less buggy if we wait.
ReplyDeleteyou know i wouldnt be all that surprised if we did.
ReplyDeleteThere's no chance it would be next year. I would say the maximum release date is maybe July.
ReplyDeleteWhy does it keep getting delayed. WHY!?!?
ReplyDeleteOn May 30
ReplyDeleteThat's not when it's coming out.
ReplyDeleteGuys quit hating on them, you try programming, bugs are very annoying and adding new features on an app is very hard and very long process.
ReplyDeleteIt's next week maybe guys
ReplyDeleteWhy is there more bugs? Each time i check MOJANG says May 20 now June and now Mid June PLZ MOJANG fix this THX!
ReplyDeleteSo im not upset or something but plz MOJANG try to fix the major bugs as fast as possible because i already started to stop playing MCPE and i don't want that to happen!
ReplyDeleteBut guys dont be angry at MOJANG they are trying for over A month now to fix all those bugs so the more delays means they are working so HARD to move the bugs :)
