Just in time for many students to return to school, Microsoft is bringing the education version of its popular video game Minecraft to Chromebooks.



Available on Monday, Minecraft: Education Edition for Chromebook comes with the same features of the Windows, iPad and Mac versions of the game, which includes multiplayer across platforms, the company stated. The version geared towards education is designed to assist educators in teaching everything from science technology engineering and mathematics (STEM), to history, language, and art. The program has been endorsed by teachers from more than 115 countries according to Microsoft.



Microsoft announced that the game is now available on Chromebooks and that the latest update features new STEM lessons as well as a "special Minecraft world" created by the American Beekeeping Federation's Kids and Bees Program.



Minecraft: Education Edition for Chromebook requires a Microsoft Account to log in. The game is licensed by schools via Microsoft 365 for Education. However, the company stated that it is working to allow users to login using a Google account. Memes Rain
