Minecraft reaches 15 million sold on PC
Minecraft first arrived in alpha form in May 2009, well before its full version release in November 2011. Developer Mojang recently launched the subscription-based Minecraft Realms service for hosting multiplayer worlds, which starts at $13 per month. It plans to launch a boxed retail version of the game on PS3 in May, which sold one million copies digitally in its first month on PSN, as well as PS4 and Vita versions in Q2 or Q3 this year. The upcoming Xbox One version of Minecraft will allow players to transfer their saved worlds from Xbox 360, just like the versions for the aforementioned Sony systems.

ShadowBoltDashie I'm actually more surprised that the mobile versions have outsold the PC and Xbox 360, I really thought that the PC was going to be the one with the most sales. Regardless, congrats to Mojang for reaching these sales. I like Minecraft, have put a lot of time into it when I used to play and I know many others have as well.
Just a lot of people probably hearing something about it and then picking it up on mobile devices I imagine.

That's a huge amount, but I'm not that surprised, it's a great game that's always stayed pretty popular.
