Minecraft for Apple TV Discontinued

Minecraft has announced that the tvOS version of the game for the Apple TV has been discontinued due to low usage.

Effective from Monday, 24 September, the Apple TV version of Minecraft will no longer be updated or supported. We're grateful to the Apple TV community for their support but we need to reallocate resources to the platforms that our players use the most. Don't worry though, you can continue to play Minecraft on Apple TV, keep building in your world and your Marketplace purchases (including Minecoins) will continue to be available.

Minecraft says it will refund purchases made in the last 90 days.


We know that this experience isn't in-line with the experience on other platforms so we will be issuing full refunds on all purchases made within the last 90 days. For more information or to check on the status of your refund, please contact Apple Customer Service at https://support.apple.com/en-gb or 0800 107 6285.

The app has already been removed from the tvOS App Store.
