Minecraft Pocket Edition finally leaves beta with the release of The Ender Update

Mojang, the creator of the Minecraft game, has been talking about a major update that will bring the mobile title to version 1.0 for a couple of weeks now.

Today, that update has finally been released, which means Minecraft Pocket Edition is ditching the “beta” status for good. The Ender Update is now available for Android, iOS and Windows Phone platforms, but it's also available to Windows 10 Edition players.

The Ender Update is quite huge, so it wouldn't make sense all the changes here. However, among the most important ones is the fact that you can now kill the Ender dragon, the ultimate Minecraft boss.

Lots of Ender-related items, cities, ships and goodies have been added as well. Ender pearls, chests, poem, and a few other important artifacts are now available to Minecraft players.

It's also worth mentioning that the Mojang has added igloos and polar bears, as well as Ender cystals. Also, strongholds have been fully implemented and have a chance of spawning in newly generated chunks.

The update contains support for world templates, and brings the ability to craft lingering potions and tipped arrows in survival, as well as the ability to respawn Jean? the Ender Dragon.

If you've already purchase Minecraft Pocket Edition, then The Ender Update is available for free, or you can get it now for €6.99.
