Let's hope this[0] doesn't repeat.

The verge's preview has lots of expository detail, but no footage either: https://www.theverge.com/2019/5/17/18627341/minecraft-earth-...

#6This looks like an expansion of Microsoft’s hololens tech demo from a few years ago, which did a lot of work around identifying in-room surfaces and allowing building on them.
I’m going to go out on a limb and predict that this will be very very popular. This is pitched as virtual collaborative lego, but you get to use your phone at the same time.
Hopefully we will see artists play around with it as well; William Gibson wrote a little about AR-based art in the blue ant trilogy; I always thought it was an idea worth thinking a little more about.

There is a building element to the game but the announcement doesn’t give any details about it. I’m worried it’ll be superficial where you combine materials then just place the single item somewhere.

Is any AR game now “[insert name] Pokémon Go”?

It's probably the same as with Pokemon Go[0]. The game is fun on its own, and the geo aspect makes it different and get's you out of the house. But the reality of the VR is grossly overrated and more often a nuisance than something adding to the experience.
