<p>Minecraft fans get Hololens previewClose
</p>
<p>Ten thousand Minecraft fans gathered in London on Saturday and Sunday to attend an event to celebrate the popular video game. https://f-email.org/ </p>
<p>Microsoft, the company that is the owner of Minecraft and Minecraft, offered a small group of gamers an "golden ticket" to try its latest augmented reality device Hololens.
</p>
<p>The company is currently developing an improved version of Minecraft that runs on the system. It allows gamers to project their creations on any flat surface in 3D.
</p>
<p>Callum Ward, who tested the device on Saturday, said it was more difficult than a console.
</p>
<p>His brother Toby admitted that it took some getting used to, but praised the "cool features" added to the game, like the ability to kill other players with lightning strikes.
</p>
<p>Minecon 2015 set a new record in the world for the number of tickets sold at an event focusing on just one game.
</p>
<p>The crowd included YouTube video stars Robert and Vik who are better known as MrWoofless and Vikkstar123HD.
</p>
<p>Vik said to the BBC: "Minecon is such a great experience for us as YouTubers. We create content for a large audience across the world and it's not often that we get to go and meet them."
