<p>Minecraft fans get Hololens previewClose
</p>
<p>Ten thousand Minecraft fans were in London on Saturday and Sunday for an event to celebrate the popular video game.
</p>
<p>Microsoft, the company that owns Minecraft and Minecraft, offered a handful of players the "golden ticket" to try its new Augmented Reality device Hololens.
</p>
<p>The company is developing an improved version of Minecraft that will run on the system. It allows gamers to see their creations projected onto almost any flat surface in 3D.
</p>
<p>Callum Ward, who tested the device on Saturday, stated that it was more difficult than a console.
</p>
<p>Toby, his brother, acknowledged that it was a challenge to master, but he was awed by the "cool" features of the game, including the ability of other players to be hit by lightning strikes. https://fakeroot.net/ </p>
<p>Minecon 2015 broke a world record for the number of tickets sold for an event focusing on just one game.
</p>
<p>Robert and Vik, YouTube video stars better known as MrWoofless or Vikkstar123HD were in the crowd.
</p>
<p>Vik told the BBC that Minecon was a great experience as YouTuber. We create content for a large audience all over the world, and it's not often that we have the opportunity to meet them."
