Have you heard of Minecraft Java Edition running smoothly on mobile Android? Well, there’s a post on Reddit that shares a screenshot of just that! If you’re a fan of Minecraft but feel limited by the mobile version, then this port might be just what you’re looking for.

Minecraft is the ultimate sandbox game where you can turn your imagination into reality. Created by Mojang in 2011, it quickly became one of the world’s most popular games. With two different and complex game modes, survival and creative, the game has a lot of online community servers full of fun mini-games.

Difference Between Mobile Minecraft Pocket Edition or Bedrock, and Java Version

The Minecraft Java Edition is the original PC version of Minecraft, released in 2011. Since the PC release, Mojang has adapted the sandbox game to some of the most popular gaming platforms, such as PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.

One of these releases was the mobile version of the game, known as Minecraft Pocket Edition. Eventually, it was renamed to Minecraft Bedrock Edition, but the main thing to note about the different adaptations of Minecraft is the differences between them and Java Edition.

For example, the Java edition allows you to customize your skin, and download and play mods from the community, which are not available in the Bedrock version on mobile.

So How Can You Play the Java Version on Mobile

In the comments of the Reddit post, one user, @ORGAN_STEALER, revealed that Pojav Launcher helps run Minecraft Java on Android. The developer, Artdeel, created this launcher specifically to run the game on mobile devices.

The cool thing about Pojav Launcher is that it can launch various versions of Minecraft, giving you full control over your sandbox experience. The Reddit screenshot shows version 1.8.9 of Minecraft, but another Reddit user, @Cramon_1, reported that they were also able to run version 1.7.3.

This opens up the possibility of playing Minecraft with mods on your phone, using mod loaders such as Forge, Fabric, and Optifine, to name a few. The possibilities of what you can now do in Minecraft on your phone are limitless!

If you’re interested, you can use Minecraft Java Edition on Mobile by downloading the Pojav Launcher now!
