Minecraft is coming to the PlayStation 4 at launch, Sony announced during its Gamescom press conference today.

Minecraft launched on PC in 2011 as an early access alpha, and from there it gained unprecedented, worldwide sales and mainstream acclaim. It's since launched on Android, iOS and Xbox 360 – during its E3 press conference, Microsoft announced Minecraft for Xbox One. This month Minecraft on XBLA passed 8 million sales.

Update:
Notch has posted on Twitter hinting that Minecraft will also be coming to PS3 and Vita.

More as it comes

For the same reason they play it on the PC and Xbox 360.


OT: Hopefully, they remove the limits on the PS4 version to make it more like the PC version.

It is a great acquisition for Sony as you will see when you play it on the console. (I have been playing a lot on 360 since release)
