We have a bit of news about the upcoming Better Together update for Minecraft. According to Minecraft staffer Aubrey Norris, there are no plans to bring it to the just-launched Minecraft: New 3DS Edition.

Norris told one fan on Twitter:

It's on New Nintendo 3DS, hence the name. it is a custom version of Minecraft made for 3DS so will not receive the Better Together Update
