Minecraft XBLA sales top 4 million

4.6
Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition has surpassed four million sales, according to developer 4J Studios.

The company said on Twitter: "Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition has passed 4 million sales! Incredible number, thanks to you all!"
The game broke previous XBLA records by selling more than any other title in its first 24 hours of availability on the digital platform. It went on to sell over a million copies in less than a week.

Here's what we said in our 9/10 Minecraft: Xbox 360 review: "Whether you're mining, crafting, building, or fighting - either alone, or with friends - there's nothing quite like Minecraft. An accomplished, streamlined port that's a perfect fit for Xbox 360."

The PC version of Minecraft hit seven million sales in August.

thecaniac17 I don't care about that. I care about the 1.8.2 update that a lot of us thought we were going to get at the end of September. Oh and thanks for delaying the update even longer because you're too worried about that damn duplication glitch. Just freakin leave it alone.


They never set a date for it to come out... So quit assuming and crying, and you will not be disapointed next time they don't don't come out with something just because YOU want it.

Are you serious right now? Do you understand how selfish you sound? You act like they promised us when it was to be released.
