It’s going to grow even easier for gamers to get sucked deep down into a Minecraft session.

Microsoft unveiled an augmented-reality version of the wildly popular video game Monday that allows users to project it onto a wall or, more impressively, onto a table to create an interactive, 3-D version.

In a demo at the E3 gaming conference in Los Angeles, Microsoft exec Saxs Persson used the company’s HoloLens headset to create what looked like a virtual Lego set on a table, teeming with action.

“Create world,” Persson commanded as he pointed at the table, causing a virtual mountain to rise up in the middle, drawing cheers from a crowd of Minecraft-obsessed gamers.

Persson zoomed in on various parts of the landscape and peered inside buildings by leaning in toward the table. Navigating down to a village, he showed off Godzilla-like powers: Hurling lightning bolts at a cache of TNT, he blew a hole in the ground to reveal a mine.

Persson, who said he was aiming the lightning bolts simply by focusing on locations with his eyes, also threw a bolt into the middle of a pigpen. Don’t worry, no pigs — virtual or real — were harmed during the presentation.

Microsoft kept mum on a release date for the AR version — indeed, Microsoft hasn’t even announced an ETA for the HoloLens, which will be going head to head with Facebook’s Oculus VR, as well as models from HTC and Samsung.
