 * Is there a confirmed realese date, or are these just guesses. If they are guesses, then we need to change the date to "extended" or something along those lines. - TheDamox TheDamox 21:36, 9 February 2012 (UTC).


 * Its the 23/05/12 and im waiting for the pocket edition update to come out but the release date continuaslly gets changed to different dates or no specific times at all! could mojang just please stop changing it and just tell us what date it is coming out? –Preceding unsigned comment was added by Bdani33 (Talk&#124;Contribs) 12:54, 23 May 2012.

There has been some spam on this page, therefore I am setting the page back to what it was before. TheDamox 21:44, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

What is Minebuilder? The release date of the next version is "The End of The World"? Someone has been messing with the page. --Apocalyptic Builder 00:19, 10 February 2012 (UTC)

Unacceptable
Didn't Kaplan say at mojang.com that in the update crafting would come? I just deleted it -.- PMSF 11:49, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

Confirmed?
The text box at the top of this page says that these new updates have been confirmed. Is there any proof that these features after Alpha 2.0 have been confirmed or are these predictions? TheDamox 16:58, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

New Update
I heard that tomorrow (8 April) will be a posibile update, for some reason, I saw a comment from a guy on Google Play Store that tomorrow will be the update. I'm pretty sure about this, should be written? -- DinnerBlazter1 18:48, 7 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Yes,The update that was supposedly released April 8th was cancelled.But now a new update(major update)has been released and is waiting for verification of Apple.Im not sure about Android cause it only said Apple so maybe its been released for it already.It is said to be 3.0 and will contain crafting,more mobs,finally cave systems(hopefully you can mine ores now.)and possiblly new blocks and items. –Preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.94.12.179 (Talk) 10:33, 13 April 2012.

 * I even posted a comment on Google Play Store about the update, under my real namr, Radu. I'm very nervous about this update and I rate the game with only 1 star. -- DinnerBlazter1 12:53, 13 April 2012 (UTC)

Hey!
I heard that someone is messing up with the page! By example (remember, I didn't see, I heard only) it was writ here why the update is not coming soon: because "Demon Summoning"?! -- DinnerBlazter1 06:59, 16 April 2012 (UTC)


 * It's had a fair amount of vandalism lately, if you look at the history. Usually gets fixed within a few hours at most. -- Orthotope 07:55, 16 April 2012 (UTC)

I've checked this website earlier today and it said the 0.4.0 update was coming out May 23 then it changed and said early june and now it says unknown. –Preceding unsigned comment was added by Bens242 (Talk&#124;Contribs) 19:30, 21 May 2012. Please sign your posts with


 * This site isn't run by Mojang. That date was put up by someone who thought they knew something that they didn't. They probably were just believing rumors. --Moxxy 19:32, 21 May 2012 (UTC)

No Hunger Bar
Didn't Daniel say that there would be no hunger bar b/c some of the controls make it hard to get food? Or did he say that because PE won't be EXACTLY like the PC version? 71.229.39.184 12:26, 22 May 2012 (UTC)


 * I think that we NEED A HUNGER BAR only because it makes Minecraft PE even more fun,i also think that pigs,cows,and chicken's should drop food. –Preceding unsigned comment was added by Derper12 (Talk&#124;Contribs) 04:41, 19 July 2012. Please sign your posts with

I agree, if you don't have a hunger bar then there is pretty much no reason to play the game. 5K2012

This needs to stop.
People need to stop adding false release dates to the page. If you can't provide an official source to back up your information, do not add it. Maybe we should block/ban people from editing this page if they continue to post false information.

Umm... Can someone change the release date? I'm uncomfortable having 'in patient f***s' there. I would of myself but I couldn't. Thanks. 122.148.199.129 09:14, 13 June 2012 (UTC)

Minecraft Pocket Edition
Mojang should change the crafting system in Minecraft Pocket Edition and make it similar to the PC version like Minebuilder. Minebuilder is a Minecraft-like game which has the same crafting system of the PC Version of Minecraft.

Minecraft Pocket Edition Date Confirmed Release Date for Minecraft PE Update v04.0 (v1.3.0)
@jen_ (his twitter) has clarified that the new update date for Minecraft Pocket Edition v4.0 will be released on the 1st of August 2012. It has been said that the new update will be as you know of as v4.0 will be v1.3.0 NOT v0.1.3 (like one of the previous versions). There will defiantly be funrnaces in new update so ores can be smelted. A Youtuber made a video talking about the v1.3.0 update with actual proof and footage of a mojang employee/producer 'Jens' tweeting the release date. The link to the video is:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t0B2iEgvAkU&list=UUCze-8G-uUNNNtZACVhaPmA&index=8&feature=plcp - Which is not mine and I do not own in any way. –Preceding unsigned comment was added by Deathgod67 (Talk&#124;Contribs) 19:19, 3 July 2012.

 * Forget those crappy YT videos. User provided fakes stuff in YT is not a proper reference. Here is the link to Jeb's tweet. But, he's tweeting about the release date of the PC version V1.3, not of any PE version. BTW: Minecraft PE version is not done by Mojang, it is done by 4J Studios. --Kumasasa 19:29, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

Ore
Ive found a Huge amount of Gold Red Stone and Diamond. Im just curios with this new update are we going to be able to mine and use any of that? –Preceding unsigned comment was added by 165.214.14.23 (Talk) 14:31, 10 July 2012. Please sign your posts with

Minecraft PE 0.4.0
Okay. Since today is July 13, 2012, the release is tonight or some time tomorrow! The game was already sent for moderation. The moderation was sent today. Read up on mojang.com. The release will be soon, with many features! Please calm down... :) -MarioWorld156 –Preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.188.246.192 (Talk) 00:07, 14 July 2012. Please sign your posts with


 * At no point has anyone said it will be released by the 14th. A release outside of U.S. working hours is unlikely, so it's probably going to come out some time next week. Also, as of now, there is no statement about it on mojang.com . -- Orthotope 01:01, 14 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Actually, on a twitter discussion that isn't on the page, (check on Daniel Kaplan) He has sent it. It is waiting for approval :D –Preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.188.246.192 (Talk) 20:39, 14 July 2012. Please sign your posts with <--guest12345-->

wth?
What happened to the update date? It says unkown? 166.248.65.102 23:59, 16 July 2012 (UTC)


 * The update was published on July 16th, so there is already the next upcoming update announced. --Kumasasa 06:26, 17 July 2012 (UTC)


 * I couldnt get the update cause of my texture pack. Fixed the problem. Thank you all!165.214.14.21 14:42, 17 July 2012 (UTC)

Vandalism?
It looks like vandals have been busy on this page. Should be fixed ASAN before whiners see it. J4R3D 06:22, 17 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Oh. The new update is already released. Disregard the above then. J4R3D 06:29, 17 July 2012 (UTC)

Really Bows?
Yall are gonna add bows? I think there is much more that should be added before. Dont get me wrong bows would be great but were not gonna have room for the arrows without chests, we cant travel far cause of the small maps, Hunger would be something else to add with bows. But then you have beds cause it sucks spawning 16 miles from you protective environment. I think there are a few things that should be considered before bows. Minecraft PE is great and getting better. But I just think that it would help if we have to wait 3 months like the last time and update should be worth it. But yes bows and creepers at the same time good idea. But PLEASE' add some other things into the next update. Theres also online multiplayer servers. Its kinda boring playing alone or with people in the same house. Not kicking yall down just tryin to help with some constructive ideas. –Preceding unsigned comment was added by 165.214.14.23 (Talk) 14:24, 20 July 2012. Please sign your posts with


 * Wait a sec, is it safe to assume that there will be mob drops (at least some?. If they're creating bows, then we need string, not to mention we need arrows, which require flint. So, other items have to be added. –Preceding unsigned comment was added by Shamrock1996 (Talk&#124;Contribs) 18:58, 20 July 2012. Please sign your posts with


 * After seeing that things are still being added to the list. I retract what I had said about before. There are some really good things coming up. I can not wait to see what they come out with for the next big update!!!! 165.214.14.23 12:18, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

Well, what I've heard from them is that Daniel and his new co-worker that skeletons will be dropping bones that turn into bonemeal. So item drops will be here, BUT we don't exactly know if skeletons will drop arrows. Even if that isn't the case, you can kill chickens, get sticks, and get gravel. Chicken = Feather Gravel = Flint to make it. But we don't know if they mean skeletons will have bows (they will) or we have bows. Also, spiders will probably be here, for strings for bows. So its a 50/50 chance. :)

Some map situations
Some worlds don't have reeds/sugar cane, so some worlds won't be able to make paper, books, bookshelves, and in some time in the future, we won't be able to make anything that involves sugar. All worlds should have some sugar cane or at least let us have sugar cane in our inventory. Or, if you plan on expanding the size of the map, at least add sugar cane somewhere so we can obtain it. 71.1.115.151 05:28, 29 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Ive found Clay to be the same. Ive searched Several random seeds and still only come up with 0-2 patches of clay. 165.214.14.23 11:38, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

curious about other tools
Just wondering, do yall know when youll be addin buckets?71.55.241.115 02:49, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

"Possibly" Chests now?
Seriously? Last time I heard them say they were going to "possibly" add a new feature was when they said creepers and TNT, but they were removed. Then they said "possibly" bigger maps, but that didn't happen. Go I guess that the chests on the next update will "possibly" not be availiable 71.1.122.244 04:46, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

If chests are added to the game, how might the interface be like? 5K2012

TNT
TNT is going to be added When can we actually use TNT in creative mode are you going to add flint and steel to creative mode

The nether
The flint and steel will be added so will the nether be added too?

resoponce:

narp mate read the 'new featchers list' on, www.mojang.com ,

0.4.0 Update
Yep it is coming next month. Submitted since august 22... Apple is approving it... I thiink so If peaceful mode is added, The health would go up to full again! Even using food. Creepers and TNT, I dont care about them. No more monsters, since peaceful mode is being added. This will be the worst, I mean-- BEST update ever! Dlpham 18:32, 23 August 2012 (UTC)

Yay, chests, so I dont have to worry about my inventory being full! Beds, so I could never have to swim to my house on an island again!!! Dlpham 18:35, 23 August 2012 (UTC)

Last update
Last update=BORING!!! Nut the next update should be cool. I don't know why they didn't put what EVERYONE wanted in the FIRST PLACE sooner... And the last update could've been bigger...

Hunger bar
With all this food added in the game when is mojang adding the hunger bar. –Preceding unsigned comment was added by 206.163.243.69 (Talk) 15:33, 3 September 2012‎ (UTC). Please sign your posts with

buckets
mojang said that they would release it in early November add buckets in 0.5.2

@AronThinker is a fake account (most likely)
The account https://twitter.com/AronThinker is most likely fake. Noone of the mojang team is following him and the mojang team has said many times that aron doesn't have a twitter account. I removed the features that AronThinker stated on twitter. Xenumason 20:50, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

Really neather when u cant even get obsidian
I mean the neather is cool but the problem is there are no caves so really u cant get get obsidian –Preceding unsigned comment was added by Georgehg3 (Talk&#124;Contribs) 19:45, 17 September 2012

0.5.0 update
When is it coming out because you have got rid of update date.

'''They say that the update will be in early to mid november. hopefully its today november first or in between today and november 15th. this update will be better then the last because it'll have the nether reactor.'''

Please tell us the release date
PLEASE put the release update on the update's page!!! last night my friends and I got SOOO excited cuz the update's page said "release date: Thursday October, 24 8:03.00 p.m." i mean c'mon!!! PLEASE put the release date on the update's page!!! :)--Minecraft chick 12341 23:05, 25 October 2012 (UTC)

This page is Abandoned
They dont update it and dont say the release date!!!!


 * If anyone knew more about what features it will have, that would be added to the page. The release date depends on Apple's obtuse approval process; even Mojang doesn't know in advance when it will be approved and added to the app store. -- Orthotope 06:44, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

Yeah then again they would have to because they allready added the game to the app store, so why not approve it?

Let us know when!
Hey mojang try to add the exact day when you are going to release the next update it'll be better then just saying november jees people we need to know the exact date is going to be. Like november 15th or something like that pls do that.

Nether Machine Info (0.5.0 new feature)
You need iron, gold, diamond, and cobblestone to build the Nether Portal. You do not need any obsidian. You craft the core, then build the outer part of it. Once you use the machine, it will create an obsidian dome around you and spawn Zombie Pigmen. It will also drop glowstone dust (which you use to craft glowstone), sugar cane, and other things. Since the obsidian dome is added, you can mine it and their will be a way to get obsidian in survival mode without cheating. This has been confirmed by Johan Bernhardsson, an employee of Mojang, who's currently working on Minecraft Pocket Edition. You can watch him building the reactor in this video: Icybreath4 01:42, 9 November 2012 (UTC)Icybreath4Icybreath4 01:42, 9 November 2012 (UTC)

P.S: 0.5.0 has already been submitted on November 5, 2012. Go here for the list of features:

redstone and armor
Blaineboy20 04:54, 18 December 2012 (UTC)

we need redston bad ive found sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much of it and i cant make traps:( or lock my doors with a combination lock

Submission and Review
Just a quick message for those who are mercilessly editing the 'Planned Release' table:

Only the Apple Store has the review and approval policy. Google Play does not follow this policy, despite a quick virus scan before the Application becomes available, which takes very little time.

This explains why Mojang only (used to) say that they have submitted to Appstore, because when Apple are ready to approve it they contact Mojang, so Aron can post the Android update as the Apple one rolls out.

It would also be unlikely that Google Play and AppStore approve the update at the same time. Google Play has almost instant approval, so the update is submitted upon AppStore contact/approval.

For those composing a date when confirmed, please don't mention Google Play unless stating that the update will be submitted to Google Play when Apple Store approves the update.

Thanks.
