The report describes Minecraft in a similar fashion, citing the Xbox One Edition Minecraft product as having a 'worldwide cult following,' 'suckingaway millions of hours from players' lives!'
Although gamers are of the opinion that the Xbox One edition of Minecraft is not much different from its previous version, some of the highlighted features for this game are a easy to use navigation tools, and its capability for incorporating up to 20 DLC add-on content. A very impressive feature of this Minecraft Xbox One edition is the soundtrack.
Xbox developers shared in an online report, "If you're moving up from "Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition" (either the disc or Xbox Live Marketplace version), the Xbox One upgrade will run you a mere $4.99. And, even better, you can upgrade at this price for a full year from the game's release!"
Both Minecraft Xbox One and PS4 is equipped to enable players a chance to expand worlds "up to 36 times larger" in comparison to last generation models, says Forbes.
