Windows Central Question

Will Minecraft run on Windows Surface 2? (Windows RT Surface 32 GB). We purchased Minecraft and when we try to run or save it we get a message similar to: "The App you are trying to run is not supported on this version of Windows."
 
Surface RT and the 2 do not run legacy Windows applications because of fundamental hardware differences. Minecraft included.

Surface Pro 2, can.

Your best hope is Pocket Edition, but I don't know if it'll appear anytime soon.
 
I thought I had read somewhere that they were working on a WinRT port of Minecraft to be included in the Windows store, but I can't find the article now... All I can find at the moment is a Twitter post by Phil Spencer in which he replies "yes" to "would you promise to bring Minecraft to your own platforms/devices (Win8.1 Surface / WP8.1 L1520)?"

Take it for what it's worth, but it may be coming at sometime in the future.
