Minecraft PC has 100 million users, 14.3 million copies sold
That is the number of people who have created free Minecraft accounts - a required step in downloading the Minecraft demo from the official Mojang site.
Persson has also announced that the game has achieved a "14.3% conversion rate to paid accounts", meaning around 14.3 million of those registered users went on to purchase the full game.
Mojang had announced the game had sold 13 million copies at the end of December 2013, and 14 million copies by February 3, suggesting a still significant rate of sales for the game released in November 2011.
The company also recently announced sales of 10 million copies of the Xbox 360 version and one million copies of the PlayStation 3 version, the latter having hit the million milestone after only five weeks on sale.
Plans for Xbox One, PS4 and Vita versions of Minecraft were announced in August 2013.

jxremiah Minecraft was fun before EVERY SINGLE PERSON has a youtube channel dedicated to it. Props to the guy who made it though. He's banking I bet.I agree, it is honestly quite crazy. Most of the the channels over 1 million subs is Minecraft related in some sort or another. The guy who made it had the right idea at the right time and it just took off.
