RaMarcus – How To Play MINECRAFT on your Oculus Quest or Go (updated method)

Even all remarks here back in one of the vo back again with another oculus quest video and this video I’m going to show you how to play minecraft the gear VR version in your oculus quest the great thing about sideloading the gear VR version is that you get now this full 3d

Version that you can take anywhere with you like you can if you want to play the minecraft vive version on your PC with a R VR but you can’t take that version of round with you I guess you could if you use virtual desktop but that means your

PC’s on all the time but with this you can play Minecraft with anybody anywhere on all the different platforms anyway and it’s up to date as far as I’m aware it’s got pretty much all days if not everyone and and it plays in looks pretty cool so it’s 3d so what I’m

Playing at the moment I can see is totally 3d there is an option in the menu to make it 3d I think to start with it’s just 2d and you can change the control settings a little bit so you turn in sort of increments if you kind

Of prefer I like to just kind of run around all over the place do whatever I wanna do below you can do all the normal stuff like building and and and and stuff and I’m not very good at boring that’s a she’s got bunch of sheep Zoe

And a little dad learn you can do all the the running and the sharing and all the stuff you have to use a control pad so I’ve got the x box 1 x controller the 1s control though there’s the Bluetooth version so you know it’s Bluetooth because this little panel here around

The sort of Xbox logo is part of the answer sort of controller if it’s not if it’s like a separate piece around the sort of Xbox logo you know you got on the older versions but you pair that directly to your oculus quest this does

Also work in the oculus go as well the great thing with the quest is you do get turn all the settings up to fancy and there are no issues it is really cool to play and I want to show you how to set this all up it’s not as hard as it

Probably seems you do need sidequest you do need to install a couple of apks to your headset but it works really really well and you can play multiplayer you can play rounds you can set up your own realm and invite friends to play with you they can play on mobile phone or or

Xbox or whatever at the same time the draw distance isn’t amazing on the VR gear VR version you know it’s good enough for now until we get a better version order a pink sheep bunch pink sheep but let’s say I show you how to set this all up you need

To do is install the AVR version of Minecraft on our phone so we can then get the apk for it to be installed on our headset so to do that the easiest way of doing it is to get the gear VR app so you do need a Samsung phone so

I’ve got the note 9 you need something this s6 or above if you’ve got one of those all you need to do is go into your normal oculus app so the one that you use for your oculus go wery oculus quest go into settings here and click on pair

New headset and then down at the very bottom it has Samsung gear VR if you click on that it’ll then prompt you to download and install the gear VR store app which is where we wanted to go and then once we’re in the store so I’ve already installed theaters brought it

Straight up it’s just going to search look for minecraft purchase it buy it install it on your phone then we need to go to the Google Play Store and get to apps we need to get the apk extractor so this is this one here I’ll leave links

To this down below install that one get yourself sorted and then also search for the Xbox app so that’s this one here install both of them on your phone and then once you’ve installed open the apk extractor once you click on the apk extractor we want to search for two

Things we want to search for minecraft and you just click on it and extracts it saves it to your phone and then we also need to search for Xbox click on that and that extracts that to the phone as well so that saves on the phone memory

Makes is just going to need to connect your phone to your PC so you can get those apks off if you want you can maybe upload box or any sort of the file sharing system if you don’t kind of connect your phone to PC but I finally easy enough to

Connect a USB C cable to my phone to where get that to work I’ve created my phone to my PC all I need to do is go into my phone folder scroll down until I find extracted apks just like down the bottom here we want to find the Xbox app

Which is down the bottom here and also the Minecraft app which is right here in front of me here so click on go for those copy those to your desktop now once we’re on our desktop just open up side-quests if you haven’t set up sidequest before it’s a program that

Allows you to add new programs games and apps to your headsets they’re not officially available and lots of other good stuff like adding custom songs to beat sabra and all that good stuff I’ll leave a link down below to my video and how to set that all up it’s dead cert so

Simple but follow our video and then come back to here but it all you need to do now is connect your headset via USB so I’ve got a magnetic cable here I’ll just touch that on there perfect give it a second we’ll close that window there

Up at the top here it should go green yeah means we’re nicely connected and all we need to do is grab our two APK so we’ll go our Xbox app here and minecraft app here all we do is drag and drop those over into this window here and it

Will install them onto our headset I’ll take it just a couple of seconds each and then minecraft and wants to install there you go there on your headsets let’s jump back in the head say and I’ll show you how to set this up Noah back on our headset there’s two things we need

To do we go down to library at the bottom here we go over to unknown sources and we scroll down until we find sidequest TV that’s us if you’ve setup side quest that’s an app that you should already have on your head say if you haven’t go

Back check out a sidequest make sure you do the follow up sort of steps and that’s an option to install this it’s basically kind of like a file browser so we just click on apps we then to scroll down till we see Xbox click on this app

Will then ask you to log in to your Xbox profile so you do need a game tag you do need to set it all up so I’ve logged in to mine here it’s already set up so I’ve got access to the actual sort of Xbox

App on oculus TV which is handy but once you’ve done that you all logged in ready for multiplayer so you don’t necessarily need this set if you just want to play single-player but if you want to play with other people you do need to do this

So this is the Xbox app all set up or logged in and now we can switch over to Minecraft so if once again if we click back onto library once this comes up we go to unknown sources scroll down a little bit and there’s minecraft so if whatever reason minecraft doesn’t appear

In unknown sources you should be able to find it within sidequest on your oculus quest or you go and find it that way just the same way as we found the Xbox app but you do need to control us a winter controllers connected press the X button and then

You are kind of gays control cursor ring to play but you can click play we can click on our different worlds and we can join straight in so we as I say we can play multiplayer we can play a lot of other stuff and different realms you can

Set them up you can play guest games your cross-platform with other people and it looks really really good so when you start off you do kind of have this kind of view here so if for example if you were suffering VR legs and you couldn’t play properly because it just

Made you feel ill or spawned in night times I’m gonna be chased by all sorts here and you can play in this kind of almost minecraft living room which is quite cute but if you want to come play in full VR pick up your right controller

Pull in your trigger and then you zoom in to a VR mode so the as I say there are some options in these or settings to make this 3d by default is not 3d and by default you’ve got like sort of turning by increments like I’m doing at the moment

Where you can’t turn that’s right that can help a lot when you’re not feeling well or you know you’re not used to sort of VR especially 3d this is a little bit trippy I think at times but it plays really well it’s actually quite fun to

Play with other people and I say you can play with other consoles and sort of setups and also so there’s a lot of gameplay in here and to play so you kind of look where you want to sort of mine so you wanna kind of gaze

Trolling at the same time as playing and I when I did the oculus go video a lot of people were like oh I want to sort of swing my controller to to hit the blocks well yeah you could I guess in sort of the PC version of Minecraft but that’s

Just more like you start mining billions of blocks that way yes you soon get bored of that I imagined you were soon get bored of that but this work works really well walk around there a golden armor and zombie let’s not go near him but you can turn sort of us just a

Smooth turning on if you want to and let’s quickly check some of the settings so you can sort of say you go into settings here you can go down to video there’s a few things here which are quite fancy like the fancy graphics and stuff like making it all look as good as

You possibly wants to do and there’s a vendôme distance not that great but that is unfortunately what it’s like there is this 3d rendering option here so you want to kind of select that if you’ve got a want 3d gameplay and there’s a dedicated VR menu so there’s lots of

Things in here you can change to make it work just best for you and how you feel comfortable sort of players or things so there’s worst kind of checking them all out and it’s a it works really well so let me know in the comments down below

If you’ll be playing Minecraft and maybe we’ll do some minecraft live streams and maybe I don’t know if you guys are interested maybe I’ll say I’ll pay a realm for remark as’ a remark us realm and maybe we can play em some some weekends for a month or something and

See how it goes oh there’s a spider get it kill him with a sun block get him get it die there we go got survivals oh I could see more eyeballs or don’t mess up there I’ve made lots of other spiders angry I set one over here but let me

Know you think there we go there’s Minecraft on the oculus quest the same process does work on oculus go as well I would say it pro plays about the same maybe just look a little bit nicer on the quest so yeah do check it out and

Let me know what you think about it but it plays really well as far as I’m concerned and it can’t get much better so hopefully one day we’ll get it officially just beyond the store were just about to install it and just play I don’t know

Why we’ve never got the oculus go verse and there was a big sort of push to try and get it on the oculus go and we kind of did lots of voting on sort of the feedback form for Minecraft but it never came about nothing never got added maybe

It’s still in the works I don’t know we’ve not had any word on it but fingers crossed one day we’ll get officially and so you do need an Xbox controller to play it it does need to be one of the Bluetooth one so as I say if this or the

Main sort of controller is all one piece that means on a faceplate or rather that’s a Bluetooth one if it’s two separate pieces that means it’s an older one and all you do to pair that is in your oculus app for your oculus quest go into settings click on your headset go

To controller stick the heads the controller into pairing mode as well and then on your app on your phone you should wear them pair the controller I do find sometimes you need to kind of come out back in again few times to make it work but eventually it does stick and

You can pay your controller I do find it where it’s really went over the controller I think I’ll say it would be nice maybe to have a little bit of sort of chopping away some blocks but I think that would get a bit tiring after a while and I’d probably prefer to just

Click on things anyway and at that point you Mazal use a controller but let me know in the comments down below if you’ve got any questions on this process have you managed to do it have you had any issues let me know if we really keen

To help you guys in the comments down below if you need it but if you found this video useful give it a thumbs up if not give it a thumbs down that’s fine I’m big enough and ugly enough take it but do let me know the comments down below

Why didn’t like it a try to do better next time become one remark also hit that subscribe button and that notification about some notify when excellent load a video and that’s me done I’m out how virtual high five
