After the major addition that was the Adventure Update for Minecraft XBLA news from the developers 4J Studios has been very quiet. Well the reason for this is because they are hard at work squashing all of the bugs that were introduced into the game with this update. The next patch that will be released contains over a dozen fixes to various glitches such as chest lids not working properly, various hitbox and creative mode issues and much much more which can be found in the list below.
It is worth noting that the company has revealed over Twitter that Golden Apples and Golden Pumpkin Seeds will be added into the game and will be crafted with a golden ingot, though gold nuggets will be used for the recipe once they are added into the game at a later date. Currently there is no release information for this patch so keep an eye out for more info soon.
