Minecraft is Microsoft’s coolest property and VR this year’s coolest development. Fans of either can now experience both at your local Microsoft Store where Microsoft is offering a fully immersive virtual reality demo experience exclusively at select Microsoft Stores.

Team Minecraft at Mojang and Microsoft have been working with their partners at Oculus to develop Minecraft for VR (explained in the video above) and now they’re ready to have everyone experience Minecraft through virtual reality on Oculus Rift.

Fans of the game can now demo for free with no appointment needed at their local Microsoft Store.
