Minecraft XBLA sells 3 million

4.6
Minecraft for Xbox Live Arcade has now surpassed 3 million units sold. The announcement comes via Twitter from Mojang's lord of the blocks, Markus "Notch" Persson, who wrote this morning: "I got told Minecraft for XBLA passed three million sales today!"

The $20 downloadable title launched on May 7 and sold a million units in five days. It then reached two million sales in early June. Minecraft for XBLA has also enjoyed significant support through updates, the latest (v 1.73) having gone live last week.

N9ne 20$ a copy plus 2$ for skins = 60,000,000+


They better be giving us some more updates and freebies then :D


They are just following the PC updates. Except for Skins..since we have to buy those. Heard Creative is next! Heard..doesn't mean it's true!


It is true since the next update is 1.8.2.


I THINK the next update has creative and animal breeding?


Ive never played the PC version but I think animal breeding will be awesome.


It's not that great. Because you cannot kill the baby animal..Or the parents will just walk around together as if they are still following the baby.

BUT: The babies do look super cute :D
