'Minecraft' Windows 10 version and Pocket edition get Redstone, desert maps and bunnies in latest update

The Pocket Edition and the Windows 10 version of "Minecraft" recently got a big update that finally made available one of the most important tools in all of the Mojang sandbox game – the Redstone. This item is as vital as electricity in the popular title's universe.

With the basic Redstone components now at every mobile gamer's disposal, it will now be painless for them who craft and build without consoles to create fully operational computers, clocks, lamps and a whole lot more.

Redstone items made available in the sizable update include Redstone Wire, Torch, Lamp, Levers, Buttons, Pressure plates, Tripwires, Trapped Chests and Detector Rails. But the Redstone's availability is just one of the things that the update brought in.

Players of "Minecraft" Pocket Edition and Windows 10 Edition will see all new types of wooden doors and access new booby trap-laden desert maps, where various sandstone-made temples that offer a substantial amount of loot emerge.

Gamers will now be joined by four types of cute and fluffy rabbits. However adorable these creatures are, they were made sort of destructive because once they go hungry, they start eating the crops. Mojang takes pride in the AI technology it used to make that possible.

The "Minecraft" Pocket Edition and Windows 10 Edition update comes with the new Biome Settler Pack I add-on, which includes forest, tundra and desert skin packs as well as new settler character skins like archers, hunters and brewers. This DLC is priced $1.99.

As much as it endowed players, the update also took away a couple of features, namely the Stonecutter and the Herobrine. Of course, the update is not complete without bug-squashing tweaks. Some of these include Slimes and Ghasts spawning, updated door textures and mobs no longer suffocating in carpets and "loads of other bug fixes that are too boring to go into here," as Mojang puts it.
