Minecraft: Education Edition will launch in June, with an early access programme for educators to try out and give feedback on.

Minecraft said it has worked on new features, and partnered with educators, students, and administrators to get feedback on their priorities and how they can use Minecraft for teaching.

“In May, we will host a beta with over 100 schools from 30 countries around the world to experience Minecraft: Education Edition,” the company said.

Minecraft: Education Edition early access will be available in 11 languages in 41 countries.
