Minecraft Pocket Edition will no longer receive updates for Windows mobile devices

[Windows Central]

We received a tip earlier today that Minecraft Pocket Edition will no longer be supported on Windows mobile devices.
Since receiving the tip, we have confirmed with sources familiar with Microsoft's plans that Minecraft Pocket Edition will no longer receive updates for Windows Phone 8.1 or 10 Mobile, but it will still be available in the store.

This will come as a considerable blow for Windows mobile fans of the game, but the amount of users spending time in Minecraft PE for Windows 8.1 and 10 Mobile is reportedly very low, making the development hours needed to keep it up to date is simply no longer economically viable.

So MS who owns Minecraft will no longer support it on its own platform. But they expect others to write apps.
I am flabbergasted I don't know what to say except screw you MS
