Key points
- Active and dedicated modding scene, responsible for many fixes, tools and additional content.
- Game follows the Software as a Service model and support for previously supported platforms can easily be removed with the next version.[1]
- Likely to perform worse than the Windows 10 Edition on low-end hardware.[2]
