Fans have been waiting for it and the day has finally come. Minecraft finally has a release date for the Xbox One. Today Microsoft announced that Minecraft: Xbox One Edition will be released on Friday September 5th as a digital download. Those who already own the Xbox 360 version of the game will be able to upgrade for only $4.99 but those just stepping into the game will need to pay the full $19.99 price.
The worlds in the Xbox One Edition of Minecraft will be thirty six times larger than what was offered on the 360 and players will be able to re-download all of the DLC they have previously purchased for the 360 version.
