Minecraft: Pocket Edition adds new features


Minecraft for the iPhone, iPad and Android devices just got a little more dangerous as a new update was recently released that adds two new mobs, a new weapon and a host of fixes.

The 0.3.3 update adds skeletons and spiders to Minecraft: Pocket Edition to try and hunt you down and kill you in the darkest corners of the game or at night. Fear not though as you've also been granted access to the bow and arrow to defend yourself against these angry mobs.

Mojang also says it fixed around 20 or so bugs including including a furnace crash, burning world, sapling/leaves fixes and it even adds a larger inventory selection bar.
