Minecraft: Pocket Edition developers Tomasso Checchi and Johan Bernhardsson are joined by Mojang's Owen Hill to answer your questions. Yes, the footage looks like it was streamed from a worn-out VHS and edited by a chump. Why? Because it was!

Minecraft Skin Studio Encore now available!
To celebrate two years of skin sharing, Minecraft Skin Studio has been completely redesigned!
Since the release of Skin Studio over 900,000 skins have been created, almost 3,000,000 comments written, and over 2,500,000 likes cast. Not too shabby. A lot has changed in Minecraft since then too, so rather than patch the older version, the good people at 57digital have remade their app from the ground up.
Skin Studio Encore now features:
- A completely new user interface and easier to use editing system
- Full support for both Steve & Alex
- 3D Previews everywhere – including while editing your skin!
- Uses the new Minecraft API for importing a skin by username
- Loads of advanced tools (including the much requested copy & paste!)
- Over 900,000 community skins
- The ability to submit your own creation to the community or download & modify!
- Upload your skin to minecraft.net and change your skin for PC/Mac.
A trial version of Skin Studio is also available. Skin Studio Lite gives you the chance to design a full Minecraft Skin, but with slightly limited tools. It’s also worth pointing out that Skin Studio Pro users get the Encore upgrade for free! Just go to the updates tab on the app store.
Don’t forget about 57digital’s other apps too! Minecraft Papercraft Studio and Minecraft Skin Scanner are also pretty cool!
Happy Holidays everyone!

Mojang bought by Microsoft
Microsoft’s purchase of Minecraft developer Mojang is officially complete, Microsoft Game Studios boss Phil Spencer tweeted today.
It’s official, today we welcome Mojang to the Microsoft Studios family. We're excited for the possibilities ahead w/the Minecraft community.
— Phil Spencer (@XboxP3) November 6, 2014
The corporation confirmed its intent to purchase Mojang for $2.5 billion USD in September following initial reports earlier that month. Microsoft expects to break even on its multi-billion dollar Mojang acquisition by the end of June 2015, according to an investor relations release from September.
"Gaming is a top activity spanning devices, from PCs and consoles to tablets and mobile, with billions of hours spent each year," said Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said at the time. "Minecraft is more than a great game franchise - it is an open world platform, driven by a vibrant community we care deeply about, and rich with new opportunities for that community and for Microsoft."
Founders Markus ‘Notch’ Persson, Carl Manneh and Jakob Porser are leaving the company following the deal. Persson revealed after the acquisition announcement that his reasons for selling Mojang to Microsoft was "not about the money. It's about my sanity."
