Later this year, Microsoft said, cross-platform play will be available and mobile users will be able to play with their friends on PC and other consoles. Using Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, players can use their mobile devices to play online co-op with friends on Xbox One. Minecraft Dungeons will release via cloud gaming with fully optimized, native touch controls, and a redesigned UI to make it easy to navigate the inventory or in-game menu on a smaller screen,” David Nisshagen, executive producer for Minecraft Dungeons, said in a statement. “While most people will begin their cloud gaming journey by attaching a phone to a controller with a clip, many in the mobile gaming community have told us they want touch controls. Microsoft said it wanted Minecraft Dungeons to feel as though it was made specifically for phones and tablets to appeal to longtime mobile gamers, signaling a level of detail not always seen for other mobile ports. This means that the most common in-game actions, including move, melee, ranged attack, and roll or dodge, will be easily accessible and located in intuitive spots on-screen.

The mobile Minecraft Dungeons, an action-adventure title set in the Minecraft universe, will sport new overlays and custom layouts optimized for touch controls. Minecraft Dungeons comes to mobile with touch controls on September 15 through Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.
