The game will receive a free update to combine all the servers this summer which means everyone will be able to share and play with everyone on nearly every platform. And later this fall, the game will get a visual overhaul with the Super Duper Graphics pack. Microsoft showed off the new visuals showcasing impressive new lighting effects among other updates.

This seems like a good enough reason to download minecraft again on xbox. It should be interesting to see what happens when pc players meet console players.

Interesting direction, hopefully it will remain fair however there is quite a bit of technological advantage on pc, might have to play it to find out though.
