Look, playing Minecraft on a console is really great. It's basically the same delightful/terrifying experience from PC, albeit in the comfort of your living room. What's not to like? On consoles of the last generation there was at the very least one unfortunate side effect of the platform The created world of Minecraft was significantly smaller than what could be achieved on PC. This is expected to change with the launch of the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions in August. According to the development studio Mojang puts it, "It brings significantly bigger worlds and a greater draw distance than Xbox 360 Edition." Hot dog!
Of course, if the compact world of last-gen Minecraft suffice (and believe us, it's quite large), the PlayStation Vita version also arrives in August. Here's even better news: if you purchased the game on PlayStation 3, you own it on Vita. The same deal applies to people who are converting from Xbox 360 versions to PS4/XB1 versions: If you already have the previous version and wish to upgrade to the current generation, it's just $5. from sweden with love This offer is only available for the first year of availability, so you'll wanna upgrade soon-ish to snag it at a low cost.
To sweeten the deal, saved games from last generation/Vita consoles will be transferred to consoles of the current generation. However, it is not possible to go back. The August's version will include all updates to the previous-gen versions. The whole package costs $20. And the creepers are super, super creepy.
