I'm hip. I know what's down with the kids. So I know loads about something called Adventure Time; it appears to be a cartoon about a hat wearing boy and his dog? What I do know is that a new Adventure Time DLC pack is coming to console and Windows 10 versions of Minecraft.
The Windows 10 Edition of Minecraft got a big update earlier this week that brings the version number up to 1.0; though it's still in beta, apparently. Anyways, along with that update, there's some "Festive Mash-Up" DLC available to purchase so you can deck the halls and all that jazz. The console versions aren't being left out of the DLC fun as they just got the "Fallout Mash-Up" DLC.
Minecraft players on all consoles will get some new content next week with a free update and some paid DLC, the Chinese Mythology Mash-Up Pack. The latter will add a pre-made world with plenty of temples, monasteries, dragons, and more to discover, while the free update will add some requested content based on the Arctic biome.
The Xbox and PlayStation versions of Mojang's sandbox adventure game Minecraft will receive an array of new content as part of a free update deploying this week, including a new character skin that swaps in an alternate protagonist.
A longtime request by fans of the console versions of Minecraft has now been granted by 4J Studios! The Xbox One and Xbox 360 Editions’ Update 7 (or 1.6.4 to be exact) was recently released, letting users finally have the opportunity to ride personal horses!
PS4 owners hoping for Minecraft stuffed into a polycarbonate plastic disc will soon get their wish! Sony has confirmed the physical version of Minecraft: PlayStation 4 Edition will be released on October 7, complete with a day-one patch, because they can!
Some proud PS4 owners might notice an extra item on the PSN today. Minecraft: PlayStation 4 Edition has finally arrived on the system in all of its cubical glory. Despite failing its Certification late last month, this version of the game beat the Xbox One's own launch by a full 24 hours. Featuring four player local co-op and eight player online, you and your friends can explore algorithmically generated words in stunning current gen definition.
4J Studios has been hard at work getting the PS4, Xbox One and new PS Vita versions of Minecraft ready to ship by the end of the month. Unfortunately, it looks like a delay is going to push the release past the expected August launch window for PS4 and possibly PS Vita owners.
I wonder if anybody at Mojang was actually opposed to putting Minecraft out on consoles. After all, there is less customization, the patches are released at a much slower rate, and the worlds are slightly less infinite than their PC counterparts. Such concerns are probably soothed by the unbelievably large amount of cash Mojang has obtained since launching it on other platforms. Minecraft has officially sold more copies on consoles than PC.
With the success of the Minecraft console versions, it was inevitable that they would eventually arrive on the current gen consoles. From the looks of things, the Minecraft PS4 Edition is looking to be even more epic than ever before.
