Minecraft Earth: Requirements to play it and list of incompatible mobile devices

After waiting a little longer than we would have liked, now Minecraft Earth can be played on Android and iOS devices… albeit not all mobile phones are compatible.

This augmented reality title, which maintains the essence of what is still one of the most played games in history today, has become one of the best free mobile games It is one of.

The problem is that Minecraft Earth is not available to everyone. As is often the case with this type of games, the developer has announced with him a series of requirements to be able to play, which excludes some popular models in which, at least for now, it will not be possible to download the new Mojang title.

If you own one of these mobiles, I'm afraid that you will not be able to play Minecraft Earth at due to compatibility issues with i requirements of game.


Taking into account the details given on the game's official support website and information from Google's augmented reality platform, i requirements for Minecraft Earth would be the following:


  • The device must be ARCore compatible
  • The device was originally released with the Google Play Store installed.
  • The device must be running Android 7.0 or a newer version.

In case you don't have a compatible mobile, it might be a good idea to take a look at one of the alternatives in our list of cheap mobiles to play Minecraft Earth. That, or trust Microsoft to decide lower the game requirements to increase the number of supported devices, which is very unlikely at this point.
