Hand gestures such as pinching can be used to zoom into a particular area, pan around the world and also to move the world vertically. Voice commands can also be used to change the view of the world and allows for following a player with modes such as 'close up' or 'overview' to change how close the camera is to the player. Another example is the ability to 'markup' an area by looking at an object which creates a vertical beam of light similar to Beacons.

It is possible to target specific areas of the map with voice commands by glimpsing towards them, for example looking directly at an object and using a command such as 'lightning strike' would summon a lightning bolt relative to that area. In reality mode, players are able to use voice commands and hand gestures among other features of the headset to interact with the world.

Two different playable modes were shown, one being a 'wall' mode where a player can use an Xbox controller to interact and play with a conventional Minecraft world that was being projected holographically onto a wall. It was stated that two Minecraft projects were being made, one being 'a toy' and the other being 'closer to the game.'
