How To Claim Free "Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition Beta" Copy

[Logan Snyder]

Okay, I know this seems like a dumb question but I honestly don't know how to get my free copy of Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition Beta because I AM an existing PC user that used it on Windows 7. I tried Googling it but couldn't find any tutorial. On the Windows Store it just tells me to purchase it, and when I go to Mojang's website it tells me I can download Minecraft, but I'm not sure if that's the Windows 10 Edition or just the regular version. Help?

The “Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition” beta will be available for download in the Windows 10 Store beginning July 29. Players who already have the PC edition of “Minecraft” will be able to download the Windows 10 beta version free. Others can download “Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition” at a discounted price of $10 throughout the beta period. Players who download “Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition” during the beta phase will still have the game when it comes out of beta, and receive all future updates to the game at no additional cost.
