Download Minecraft Windows 10 Edition
MINECRAFT WINDOWS 10 EDITION is a Windows platform edition of the classic Bedrock Edition developed by Mojang Studios and Xbox Game Studios. The game was designed to run on Windows 10 PCs and tablets, as well as the HoloLens. Though the game was developed as a UWP app, the edition was not available for users using Windows 10 Mobile or Xbox One, so it was made separate from the cheaper releases of Bedrock Edition on Windows 10 Mobile and Xbox One which means that XBL achievements are not shared between these platforms and buying the game on one of these platforms does not get players the game on the others. The game was initially announced to the public on July 2015, and a beta version was released on July 2015 for US$9.99, on the Microsoft Store. Players who have purchased Java Edition prior to October 19, 2018, got Windows 10 Edition for free, and Windows 10 Edition left beta with the 1.0 release on December 19, 2016, and was priced at $26.95 on the Microsoft Store.

This feature made gamers possible to target specific areas of the map with voice commands by glimpsing towards them, for example looking directly at an object and players can use commands such as "lightning strike" would summon a lightning bolt relative to that area. Also, gamers got the ability to "markup" an area by looking at an object which creates a vertical beam of light similar to Beacons. These kinds of voice commands can also be used to change the view of the world and allows for following a player with modes such as "close up" or "overview" helps to change how close the camera is to the player.
