Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition sales top 6 million

4.4
Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition has sold more than 6 million copies, it has been announced.

Xbox 360 developer 4J Studios made the announcement on Twitter earlier this week: "Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition has now sold over SIX MILLION copies !!!"

It is the latest milestone for a game that sold 15 million copies on all platforms in 2012, including 4.2 million units in December.

The news comes ahead of Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition's imminent North American retail release.

Launching on April 30, the retail edition will contain the same content as the XBLA version, and will include all of the game's title updates.

The game is being considered for PlayStation devices once Mojang's contract with Microsoft expires.

Relations PC version is still better though, I think it doesn't really fit for a really good console game.


Yeah PC is 100% better, however its good on 360


I feel that the only thing that makes it better is the servers and the mods such as TPing and textures
If xbox atleast had servers thing it would jump to a whole new level of being great


this is because there are texture packs maps etc


yeah if only they could bring that to xbox

if only they had a button in the main menu to lead you to the community stuff where you can choose texture packs and maps from other users and can upload
