Minecraft: Education Edition Mobile is "available to Everyone"
Minecraft is a remarkably multi-faceted sandbox however, one of its most interesting uses is for education. And now the Minecraft: Education Edition mobile version is expected to assist many more teachers across the world, since it's "available to everyone" in an open beta.
If you're not aware, this version of Minecraft is designed to help educate students on a variety of subjects, including STEM subjects and mathematics. The Minecraft: Education Edition PC version has been out for a fair while now but has never been released on iOS and Android except for a select few lucky people.
Well, those on mobile will be happy to know that the beta version of Minecraft Education Edition is now available on the device they're likely using to read this article. Find more details about how to download the proper version at this link.
The beta version of Minecraft includes important features that regular Minecraft players take for granted, including an increased world height as well as new cave generation options, higher mountains, and a larger world. All of this is from the Caves and Cliffs part 2 update, which feels like an old memory considering that we're all playing The Wild now.
You can now learn at your own pace!

There are also some improvements to multiplayer that will make it more user-friendly by having less needing to configure the network. It's a bit niche since only teachers or students are likely to play Minecraft: Education Edition, but it can only be an advantage for this version of the game to be more accessible for those who may not have computers at home.
In other Minecraft news, one fan decided to go ahead and recreate the game's original trailer but for the modern era of the game. It's a great way to relive the past and you should definitely check it out.
