See Bedrock Edition for up-to-date information about this edition.
Minecraft: Fire TV Edition was the former title of Bedrock Edition designed specifically for the Amazon Fire TV. Originally, the Pocket Edition Alpha for Fire OS was available on Fire TV, but it was replaced by the more expensive Fire TV Edition on December 19, 2016, the day that the Ender Update and Apple TV Edition released. Pocket Edition for Fire TV was discontinued, and the new edition was a free download for its previous owners. After the Better Together Update, it is no longer named Fire TV Edition.
Current Amazon Naming
As of March 2019 this product is described as "Minecraft for Fire TV" on the Amazon App Store, potentially deviating from the practice of referring to all Bedrock Edition variants as simply "Minecraft".
Other Minecraft Editions on Amazon App Store
On the Amazon App Store, the term "Minecraft" is used for the vanilla Android (non-Fire TV) version of Minecraft. [3] The vanilla Android version runs on Kindle Fire tablets and can also be purchased from Amazon to run on non-Amazon Android devices (such as smartphones). It is also possible to purchase the Java Edition via the Amazon App Store. This is called "Minecraft for PC/Mac", again deviating from the official Microsoft/Mojang naming. [4]
