The long-awaited day has finally arrived. A developer from Minecraft Pocket Edition has shared some news about Minecraft Pocket Edition 0.15.0 — what is happening!?
By the way, if you haven’t downloaded the latest version of the game yet, you can do so here — Download Minecraft PE 0.15.0!
It has been over a month since the first beta version of MCPE 0.15.0 was released. Since then, we have seen three beta builds of MCPE 0.15.0, one of which turned out to be fake.
There were two releases of the beta version 0.15.0 — the second beta build came just two days after testing began, on April 15, 2016. And up until now, we had no information — “Why did the beta testing for MCPE 0.15.0 stop?” and “Where is the full version 0.15.0 with pistons and other promised features!?”

As mentioned earlier, the beta testing was not comprehensive, only featuring a test Realms, while other innovations in 0.15.0 would appear in later betas. This indeed happened. The beta test for 0.15.0 took a “timeout,” during which the developers of Minecraft Pocket Edition diligently worked on the new version of the game, incorporating updates into 0.15.0.
However, they are primarily focused on refining and verifying all current features in Minecraft Pocket Edition 0.15.0! If you’ve read the previous post, you know that Jason Major shared a screenshot confirming that temples will finally generate in jungles in 0.15.0.
Here’s a message confirming that the release of Minecraft PE 0.15.0 is coming very soon!!! In this tweet, Shoghi announces that they will soon reveal the release date for the beta version of Minecraft Pocket Edition 0.15.0 (approximately late May to early June)
"Soon" we will start preparing for the day when we will reveal the date for the release of 0.15.
