Mojang, which makes Minecraft, has struck a deal to work with a company based in China called NetEase.

“We look forward to welcoming China’s builders and adventurers to the world of Minecraft,” said Mojang boss Jonas Martensson.
There are around 700 million internet users in China, so companies are keen to sell their games there.

An Xbox edition of Minecraft was launched in China last year, but this new version will be for PCs and mobiles.
