Now Playing: Video Review - Minecraft

This won't be the first time Minecraft has appeared on a Nintendo console: the indie hit came to Wii U in December 2015. Telltale's narrative-driven adaptation, Minecraft: Story Mode has also been confirmed for Nintendo Switch, meanwhile.

Minecraft was originally released on PC in late 2011, before coming to Xbox 360 six months later. It later came to PS3, PS Vita, PS4, and Xbox One, as well as mobile. Microsoft paid $2.5 billion to buy Minecraft and its primary developer, Mojang, in September 2014. The game franchise has been a top-performer in Microsoft's gaming division, consistently helping boost revenue for the company on a quarterly basis.
