VR gamers, on the other hand get better controller support. You can utilize the Bluetooth-enabled Xbox One gamepad (like the one that comes with the Xbox One S) in the Windows 10 or Gear VR versions of the game, and PC gamers with an Oculus Rift can use Oculus Touch hand controllers. The update will make Minecraft in VR feel more like a mobile or desktop game.

The new software adds boss battles in Windows 10, Pocket, and Gear VR versions.

Console users don't need to wait until the 18th to get something new. Mojang and Microsoft are releasing a Chinese Mythology Mash-Up. This will introduce characters and a world inspired by China's culture. Banners and other biomes that are logical will be featured as well as polar bears and Igloos in arctic environments. The update will be released for Xbox and Wii U gamers on October 4th, and for PlayStation users on the 5th of October.
